Learn About Cone Dystrophy

What is the definition of Cone Dystrophy?
Cone dystrophy is a general term for a group of rare eye disorders that affect the cone cells of the retina. Cone cells allow a person to see color and fine detail, and they work best in bright light. The cone dystrophies can cause a variety of symptoms such as decreased visual clarity when looking straight ahead, a reduced ability to see colors, and an increased sensitivity to light. Genetic changes in many genes have been found to cause Cone dystrophy, and the condition can be inherited in an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or x-linked manner.
