Extractions: based on Last Update 01 March 04 Rhodonine and Activa are trademarks There must be a distinct line between the medical and biological aspects of syndromes as serious as achromatopsia. This material should not be considered medical advice. Subjects aware of this syndrome should speak with their doctor. This webpage does not offer any alleviation of these symptoms in the near future. Because of the currency of some of the material presented below, students subject to rote testing based on the content of their textbooks are encouraged to review the Cautions Page before proceeding. Others may find the material controversial. However, the results speak for themselves. Achromatopsia (with an s) is a stationary congenital syndrome that is easily recognized in the clinic. It typically presents five different individual symptoms: Each of the above symptoms may appear independently and without association with Achromatopsia. In such case, they may be caused by other underlying disease. Abnormal iris operation is common but frequently undocumented.

Correspondence should be addressed to Olof H. Sundin osundin1@jhmi.edu Complete achromatopsia is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder characterized by photophobia, low visual acuity, nystagmus and a total inability to distinguish colours. In this disease, cone photoreceptors, the retinal sensory neurons mediating colour vision, seem viable but fail to generate an electrical response to light (ref. 4).

Extractions: In 1775, the western Pacific island of Pingelap was battered by Typhoon Lengkieki, killing 90% of the population-and many of those who survived the storm died after the ensuing famine. Only a few individuals remained to repopulate the island. One man had a rare mutation which he passed on to his descendants, who by the twentieth century represented a large fraction of the island's population. The mutation led to a condition known as achromatopsia, or total colourblindness, in which affected individuals have a complete inability to distinguish colours and see only in shades of grey. The story of the Pingelapese islanders is recounted in the 1998 book Island of the Colourblind by Oliver Sacks and a BBC documentary of the same title. CONTACTS: Dr. Olof Sundin
