متن کاملRetinitis pigmentosa.
Hereditary degenerations of the human retina are genetically heterogeneous, with well over 100 genes implicated so far. This Seminar focuses on the subset of diseases called retinitis pigmentosa, in which patients typically lose night vision in adolescence, side vision in young adulthood, and central vision in later life because of progressive loss of rod and cone photoreceptor cells. Measures ...

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal dystrophy caused by the loss of photoreceptors and characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination. Prevalence of non syndromic RP is approximately 1/4,000. The most common form of RP is a rod-cone dystrophy, in which the first symptom is night blindness, followed by the progressive loss in the peripheral visual field in ...
متن کاملPhotoaversion in retinitis pigmentosa.
Photoaversion, or light-induced interference with visual comfort and performance, has been a recognised but poorly documented symptom in retinitis pigmentosa (RP). We found that a majority of our RP patients complained of photoaversion even in the absence of significant cataract. RP patients had reduced contrast sensitivity relative to normal people, but the decrement in their visual performanc...
متن کاملRetinitis Pigmentosa and Allied Disorders
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a generic term for a group of disorders characterized by hereditary diffuse usually bilaterally symmetrical progressive dysfunction, cell loss and eventual atrophy of retina. Initially photoreceptors are involved and subsequently inner retina is damaged. Although both rods and cones are involved, damage to the rods is predominant. RP may be seen in isolation (Typica...
