ERN-EYE, a European Reference Network dedicated to Rare Eye Diseases

Rare Eye Diseases display major heterogeneity and represent the leading cause of visual impairment/visual loss in children & young adults. Significant barriers remain for early diagnosis, patient management & research. EU experts decided to join forces in a European Reference Network.

European reference networks - For rare, low-prevalence and complex diseases

European Reference Networks (ERNs) are virtual networks involving healthcare providers across Europe. They aim to tackle complex or rare diseases and conditions that require highly specialised treatment and concentrated knowledge and resources. Health systems in the European Union aim to provide high-quality, cost-effective care. This is particularly difficult with rare or low-prevalence complex diseases or conditions. Between 5.000 and 8.000 rare diseases affect the daily lives of around 30 million people in the EU.
