WFS appears to negatively impact participation in a variety of activities, and this effect may increase as people age and/or WFS progresses. The most functionally-pertinent WFS symptoms are those associated with neurodegeneration especially vision loss and walking and balance problems. This study revealed symptoms and activity domains that are most relevant for people with WFS and, thus, can inform current practice and treatment development research.
