Table 1

Summary of clinical findings

Patient Age VA Refraction Horizontal pendular nystagmus ERG Fundus M-R colour vision test
ERG  =  counting fingers; M-R  =  Mollon-Reffin test. The letters give the axis P  =  protan, D  =  deutan, and T  =  tritan. The number in parentheses gives the least saturated chip that could be discriminated from the greys; VI:3 has a right sided congenital cataract.

L CF −4.0/+3.0×160 Normal rod specific responses P(no)D(no)T(no)
V:4 41 R 6/60 −2.0/+2.0×110 Absent Absent 30 Hz cone responses; Abnormal foveal appearance P(no)D(no)T(no)
