Progressive Cone/Cone-Rod Dystrophy
Progressive cone/cone-rod dystrophies (CRD) are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by early deterioration of visual acuity and color vision, and in some cases nystagmus. The prevalence is estimated to be 1/40,000. Patients usually present in childhood or early adult life.

Progressive Cone-Dystrophy, Cone-Rod Dystrophy, and Rod-Cone Dystrophies
Cone-rod dystrophies are retinopathies in which cones are mainly affected and rod-cone dystrophies (retinitis pigmentosa) are retinopathies in which rods are mainly affected. The most common symptoms in cone-rod dystrophies are a progressive decrease in central vision and color vision loss.
