There is considerable clinical heterogeneity, mostly age-dependent.  Night blindness can occur in early childhood but usually later even though scotopic responses can be undetectable in the first decade of life while photopic responses are reduced on the ERG at all ages.  Both rod and cone responses may be extinguished in later life.  Visual acuity can be decreased beginning in early childhood and legal blindness usually occurs by the second or third decade of life.  However, the loss of vision continues to progress and severe vision loss to finger-counting may be present in older individuals.  A scallop-bordered lacunar atrophy may be seen in the midperiphery.  The macula is only mildly involved by clinical examination although central retinal thinning is seen in all cases.  Dyschromatopsia is mild early and usually becomes more severe.  The visual fields are moderately to severely constricted although in younger individuals a typical ring scotoma is present.  The peripheral retina contains ‘white dots’ and often resembles the retinal changes seen in retinitis punctate albescens.
