  • Title: Congenital stationary night blindness in a Thoroughbred and a Paso Fino.
    Author: Nunnery C, Pickett JP, Zimmerman KL.
    Journal: Vet Ophthalmol; 2005; 8(6):415-9. PubMed ID: 16359365.
    Abstract:
    This report documents congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) in two non-Appaloosa horse breeds (Thoroughbred and Paso Fino). History of vision impairment since birth, normal ocular structures on ophthalmic examination, and electroretinographic findings were consistent with CSNB. In one horse (Thoroughbred), a 9-year follow-up was carried out. In the Paso Fino, severe vision impairment from birth to approximately 1 year of age in both dim and bright light situations led to humane euthanasia and histopathologic confirmation of the disorder.
