What causes a deletion in the X chromosome to cause blindness?

A deletion in the X chromosome can result in blindness if it affects genes that are essential for vision. Genes involved in eye development and function are located on the X chromosome, so a deletion can disrupt the production of proteins necessary for normal vision. This disruption can lead to vision problems or blindness depending on the extent of the deletion and which specific genes are affected.
