Stargardt's Disease is a very rare condition. There are probably fewer than 2,000 adults and children in Australia with this disease. For this reason it is difficult for doctors and researchers to gather information on it. Most opthalmologists will have seen only one or two patients with this disease in a lifetime of practice. It is often mis-diagnoed or given a generic name such as Juvenile Macular Degeneration, so that patients are not even aware of it's true name and cause.
