RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA 69; RP69

Description

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP), also designated rod-cone dystrophy, is characterized by initial night blindness due to rod dysfunction, with subsequent progressive constriction of visual fields, abnormal color vision, and eventual loss of central vision due to cone photoreceptor involvement (summary by El Shamieh et al., 2014).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of retinitis pigmentosa, see {268000}.

Most common symptoms of RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA 69; RP69

  • Blindness
  • Rod-cone dystrophy
  • Nyctalopia
  • Ichthyosis
  • Abnormality of skin pigmentation

RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA

Description

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal dystrophy leading to progressive loss of the photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium and resulting in blindness usually after several decades.

Most common symptoms of RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA

  • Intellectual disability
  • Nystagmus
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment
  • Cataract
  • Visual impairment
