چکیده

Congenital stationary night-blindness associated with myopia may be transmitted by two types of inheritance: X-linked recessive (Worth, 1906; Nettleship, 1909 and 1912; Kleiner, 1923) and autosomal recessive (Nettleship, 1912; Vogt, 1923; Gassler, 1925; Akiya, 1935; Merin et al, 1970). There are only a few reports of either variety. The present paper describes a family where 3 sibs are affected with the autosomal recessive form of congenital night-blindness with myopia. To our knowledge this is the third report of this condition in the English literature.

Retinitis 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...
