Sleep and circadian phenotype in people without cone-mediated vision
2020-06-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Light exposure entrains the circadian clock through the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, which sense light in addition to the cones and rods. In congenital achromatopsia (ACHM; prevalence 1:30-50,000), the cone system is non-functional, resulting in severe light avoidance and photophobia at daytime light levels. How this condition affects circadian and neuroendocrine respon...
