Thank you, Mr Ramadan Younes, for brilliantly sharing this story even though it's so difficult for you. Words cannot express how sadden I am by not only your story but those shared by your brave participants. I send you all my thoughts and well wishes for the days ahead. May the grace of God be with you always.
As an optometrist who has examined and diagnosed many Retinitis Pigmentosa. I'm pained that any doctor will give such false hope to patients. It is unethical and cruel. There's no cure of RP at this time. Of course research is continuous, but still no cure in 2023.
Hi this is Ramadan younes , the presenter of the film and I’d like to thank you for watching the film. We all as journalists, doctors and even patients have a vital role in raising awareness that there is no approved treatment for RP so far except the one designed for patients with a very specific genetic mutation.

Hi this is Ramadan younes, the presenter of the film. Thank you for watching it and I hope this film will help other patients, like your brother, avoid such unapproved treatments.
Hi this is Ramadan younes ,the presenter of the documentary . Thank you for watching the film and for trying to raise awareness by sharing this documentary with others.
well done !! i hope this investigation will raise the voices of justice for many desperate people and help them in many ways such as impede them from falling to traps of these doctors or even the traps of depression ! if we cant help them at least lets not be cruel on them lets be supportive !
Hi this is Ramadan Younes,the presenter of the film.thank you for watching and liking it.it would be helpful if we could share it with anyone suffering from such diseases.

When you have a registered clinical trial and claim to have treated 700 patients successfully, but have not published your numbers in a peer-reviewed magazine, you're a fraud, plain and simple.
Ramadan Younes, thank you for investigating, I truly hope action will be taken against these harmful scams. I hope you are doing well now and are proud of the work you’ve done for this documentary. Thank you so much! Your investigation will help raise awareness about this!
Thank you Mr Ramadan for this great documentary. I do appriciate your efforts. I felt so related cuz I am an RP patients and one of the victims who have been decieved by those doctors. Thank you

This is so awful. I have a condition that makes my vision deteriorate and know a little of what it feels like to cling on to every hope. These "Doctors " should at the very least be made to return the money and pay compensation. But ultimately there is no amount of money that can help. Hopefully one day a cure will be found. 🙏
Hi this is Ramadan younes,the presenter of the documentary.thank you for watching the film and it would be helpful if we could share it widely among patients who suffer from such eye conditions.
Brilliant Doco. Fabulous journalism. This doco WILL save and inspire many people. In fact, it already has. Me. As I’ve been struggling with exposing the scams of the psychiatric world, and this was the inspiration I needed to push it to the next level- to go public. I’m scared to present the evidence I have, but I’m more scared for the harm that will be done to innocent people if I don’t. So if the gentleman that made this doco, or anyone like BBC that may want a similar story, feel free to contact me. God bless those in the good fight.

Many are the times that I have visited a doctor gotten and expensive prescription and gone home without getting the medicine and the symptoms disappear just like that.
I had visual impairment in both eyes for the first 30 years of my life and I was going slowly blind. Then I got lucky and surgeries gave me good vision better than expected and I have been driving my own car for a year now and I have flown 2 planes. I researched for a long time about different surgeons and details of surgeries and it thankfully paid off. I thought I had it bad until I saw this. Poor people that's just awful. These doctors should be sued and tried and the victims deserve millions in compensation. Can someone who has money make this happen please.
Oh My God, please help those people who has suffered RP and many many similar kinds of diseases-Ameen And Please please also protect them to be a victim of those Bad people on this planet. Hard to believe that someone can actually do to another person just for the sake of money, which means nothing in reality only if they think that way..
Great information. I really wish that the conversations that aren't in English were translated in voice-over and not just captioned. It makes it hard for people who actually suffer from RP to know what is being said. Kind of ironic 😬
We must also understand that the word "treat" does not necessarily translates to cure. This style of language is underhanded and unethical because the doctor wants to come back and refute any complain that may arise down the line in saying that he/she said they will "treat" meaning that any action done to address the condition and he/she did not promise to remove the problem. It is a cruel practice and health authorities should prevent doctors from using such phrases as they are misleading and create false hope. Many months or year down the line, patients are the ones who suffer dire consequences.
Why am I not surprised that Florida's medical malpractice laws are lesser in terms of regulation than a gardening company? This shows just how important investigative journalism is.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Argus II Retinal Prosthesis System, the first implanted device to treat adults with advanced retinitis pigmentosa (RP) It is not treatment but it is implant for blind people with RP that help with orientation in they everyday life. You should mention this too. With another non effective treatment in your program I agree.
As an optometrist I m shocked how can a. Eye care professional can claim to cure. May Allah show them right path..yes we can refer them to low vision specialist if remaining vision is left but nothing can b done yes we can use remaining vision with magnifier instruments for near and far that what I suggest for my patients...it's 2023 no cure but hopefully we will find a way inshAllah
Hi this is Ramadan younes, the presenter of the film. Thank you for watching it and it would be helpful if you could share it with the patients and doctors you know.
The lawyer in the USA is the one who could file a malpractice and put an end to these clowns in Florida, but there is no money in it for him. He is shameful as well. Normally, patients are PAID for their participation in a clinical trial in USA.
He could but he can't afford to do so. In Florida's current climate, it might even be career suicide. But, he did speak out publicly and deserves to have acknowledgement for that.
Sorry to see people being exploited , I have heard of leech treatment for almost blind people recovering though not seen someone in person I only heard
@Blair Santillana That is what a closed caption is for. Low vision people don't have that option. Generally, I realize that I am not going to get the information out of the video, so move on to something else , but because this video was about vision, I thought it should be pointed out.
I am low vision and listened to the bulk of it. The one gentlemen who was blinded at Dr. Weiss' clinic spoke Arabic and when he stopped, his comments were translated. Mr. Younis and the BBC made this accessible.
This documentary should play a key role in educating governments on why they need stricter regulation of stem cell clinics. The attorney said he had been approached by other victims. Those are ones we know of. How many other victims are there? And how many other clinics? This has to stop.
Excellent journalism! It’s cruel to give such false hope. FDA must take more responsibility to bring those who lie to justice. Perhaps Ramadan might consider future interviews to investigate some amazing new innovative technology for blind persons. Microsoft & others have some amazing new resources. I’ve seen a program in which special glasses describe whats in front & around you (facial descriptions, etc) Just saw an app that can used to direct a blind person by sound. Until this disease can be cured perhaps encourage others with news of new & updated help. My heart goes out to all with vision impairment (as I have myself). ❤🇨🇦
Who do you blame the businessmen/doctors who take advantage of business opportunities or the politicians that make the laws to allow this to happen? Just like in all business opportunities people find loop holes to make MONEY and in the spirit of "doing business" someone always loses!
Capitalist countries always try to make healthcare expensive ( people poor in general ), which is another way to domiate and exploit. One way, is to train less doctors and nurses ( like in the UK and USA ) by making it as expensive as possible
You won’t see a story on that because it’s a non -issue , basically a conspiracy theory that has been repeatedly debunked by medical professionals , actual scientists and organizations . So no, you wouldn’t see that on the bbc because they are a reputable news agency
How about Dr. Sebi on the herbal remedies that he developed? Though he is diseased, there are quite exquisite results of his work on treating blindness. Where western medicinals don't prevail, alternative herbs do nurture the life aspects of energy, restores balance and eventually heal such inconsistencies of the body.
