Cone dystrophy. You get cone dystrophy when cells called cones in your retina start to lose their function. Cone cells are in your macula, and help you see color and handle bright light.

Rods help you see in low light. Cones give you high-resolution central vision and color vision. There are many types of inherited retinal dystrophy (IRD). Here are the most common: Retinitis ...
