Abstract	We report a case of new onset retinitis pigmentosa (RP) associated with a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in a 63-year-old African-American male who presented with worsening night vision over a period of five years. The pathogenesis of G6PD-mediated oxidative biological damage is reviewed and a mechanism for the onset of retinal disease proposed.
