Retinal Degeneration

The term retinal degeneration covers many disorders, including:

Macular Degeneration

Cone and rod dystrophy

Retinitis pigmentosa

Stargardt’s disease

Best’s disease

Progressive cone dystrophy

Usher’s Syndrome

There are also other rare disorders that may fall under this category.

Cause

Retinal degeneration is caused by genetic disorders called mutations.

Symptoms

Symptoms may be loss of peripheral vision, loss of the center portion of your vision, or general decrease or loss of all fields of your vision.

Diagnosis

The diagnosis of retinal degeneration is made by a retinal examination, lab tests, and an extensive medical history and evaluation.

Treatment

There are treatments available for some symptoms and categories of retinal degenerative diseases, but not all.  Your retina specialist will guide you through the individual treatment plan that is right for you.

Prevention

A healthy lifestyle always helps to lessen the impacts and complications of disease, however, there are no ways to prevent retinal degeneration.  Parents may choose genetic testing before deciding to have children who would inherit these disorders.
