Undercover investigation exposes doctors selling dangerous eye treatments – BBC News


Visually impaired BBC journalist Ramadan Younes goes undercover to investigate the world of genetic eye disease ‘treatments’, where some practitioners claim to cure the incurable.

In Russia and the United States, he finds doctors offering bogus treatments for retinitis pigmentosa – an incurable genetic eye condition that can lead to blindness.

He secretly films the doctors charging up to $20k for treatments that don’t work – and can be dangerous – and finds authorities unwilling to shut them down.
