Achromatopsia 7; Achm7

Description

Achromatopsia (ACHM) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from lack of cone photoreceptor function. Affected individuals present from birth or early infancy with photophobia, nystagmus, severely reduced visual acuity, and color blindness (summary by Kohl et al., 2015).For a general description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of achromatopsia, see ACHM2 (OMIM ).
