  • Title: Progressive human cone-rod dysfunction (dystrophy).
    Author: Fishman GA.
    Journal: Trans Sect Ophthalmol Am Acad Ophthalmol Otolaryngol; 1976; 81(4 Pt 1):OP716-24. PubMed ID: 1085512.
    Abstract:
    The author has classified progressive human cone-rod dysfunction into primary and secondary types. The primary type, identified by early ERG cone and usually also rod abnormalities, was further subdivided into types 1 and 2 based on, amoung other distinguishing characteristics, the extent of associated retinal pigment epithelial defects. Secondary cone-rod dysfunction apparently results from disease initially affecting the retinal pigment epithelium. Initially normal ERG findings and the presence of flecks characterize this (type 3) progressive cone-rod dysfunction.
