Rod-cone dystrophy is an umbrella term used to describe retinal conditions in which the rod-shaped photoreceptors, found mainly in the peripheral areas of the retina, degenerate ahead of the cone-shaped photoreceptors in the centre.

People with NARP (Neuropathy, Ataxia and Retinitis Pigmentosa) syndrome have neurological (muscle weakness, epilepsy and memory problems) and balance problems in addition to retinitis pigmentosa.

In this condition, retinitis pigmentosa is accompanied by progressive neurological problems, abnormal red blood cells (acanthocytosis) and defective bowel absorption of fat, leading to very low blood levels of cholesterol and absent beta lipoprotein (Abetalipoproteinaemia).

Cataracts and macular oedema are both associated with inherited sight loss and may respond to treatment.
