Abstract
Patients (7) with acquired cone degeneration were investigated. The initial visual acuities in 6 of the series were normal or near normal but later deteriorated, although they did not fall below 6/60 in any patient. All the patients tested had color vision defects and abnormalities on electrodiagnostic testing [electro-oculography, electroretinography, critical flicker fusion and visual evoked response] referable to the cone system. The typical picture was of a bull''s eye maculopathy accompanied by an annular scotoma around the fovea, but the clinical and electrophysiological investigations showed that there were considerable variations especially in the early stages.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
