Cones and Cone Pathways Remain Functional in Advanced Retinal Degeneration

2022-09-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Most defects causing retinal degeneration in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) are rod-specific mutations, but the subsequent degeneration of cones, which produces loss of daylight vision and high-acuity perception, is the most debilitating feature of the disease. To understand better why cones degenerate and how cone vision might be restored, we have made the first single-cell recordings of light respo...
