  • Title: Peripheral cone disease.
    Author: Pinckers A, Deutman AF.
    Journal: Ophthalmologica; 1977; 174(3):145-50. PubMed ID: 854266.
    Abstract:
    Peripheral cone disease is characterized by an absent cone function as measured by the ERG but a normal or slightly affected colour vision. The authors examined 20 cases. The most striking fact was the high incidence of myopia and the presence of nystagmus; on the basis of this finding the authors suggest that at least some cases of peripheral cone disease are due to myopic choroido-retinal degeneration (in French: "choroïdose myopique").
