Click Here to access our office online Understanding Achromatopsia by Richard L. Windsor, O.D. Laura K. Windsor, O.D. The Low Vision Centers of Indiana Achromatopsia is an inherited condition that affects approximately 1 in every 33,000 Americans. It is also known as rod monochromatism. This condition is associated with color blindness, visual acuity loss, extreme light sensitivity and nystagmus. It is a condition found throughout the world with varying incidence. There are two primary forms, the complete achromatopsia and incomplete achromatopsia. Complete Achromatopsia Achromatopsia means "without color" and is defined as little or no function of the cone cells. Persons with achromatopsia are only able to perceive black, white and shades of gray. Patients with complete achromatopsia have no real understanding of the concept of color. A color like red may be perceived as dark gray while yellow may be perceived as a light gray. The vision is much like that of a black and white photograph with varying shades of gray. Incomplete Achromatopsia Patients with incomplete achromatopsia have profound color impairment, but do have a small residual amount of color vision and slightly better visual acuity due to the presence of some functioning cone cells in the retina.

VISION IN A COMPLETE ACHROMAT: A PERSONAL ACCOUNT By: Knut Nordby INTRODUCTION Being myself a vision scientist who is also a complete achromat, I have, upon demand from friends and collaborators, taken on the task of trying to convey some of my visual experiences and to explain how I cope with my visual handicap. I rely on recollections, both my own and those of my family, and try to separate information that can be documented or is supported by other sources from the mere anecdotal. I also draw on information from interviews with other achromats, but only to supplement or comment on my personal experiences. My recollections may have become distorted over time, they may not be precise and may also be biased - and they may not, in all cases, apply to other achromats. It is my hope, though, that my account will give both vision scientists and the general reader a glimpse, not only into the manifestations of achromatopsia and rod-vision - topics usually not covered by the learned papers - but also into the practical problems and obstacles encountered by a completely colour-blind person.

Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Maskun Maskun is a medical condition (also called achromatopsia ) characterized by the inability to perceive any colors , a severe and rare form of color blindness . It is caused by the lack of any functioning cone cells in the retina ; these are the light receptors responsible for color perception. It is endemic on Pohnpei and was described by Oliver Sacks in Island of the Colorblind . Sacks went there with a Dane who had maskun, and the book narrates his experiences on the island. People with maskun have difficulty seeing in bright daylight because their rod cells (the receptors responsible for detecting brightness) are saturated. People with normal color vision do not perceive things in the same way as those with maskun, because they depend on color more than on luminosity to identify objects and patterns, whereas achromatopics depend almost entirely on luminosity to identify patterns. The closest that normal-sighted persons can come to experiencing maskun-type vision is in the dark, when the rod cells become the predominant receptors for vision due to their sensitivity to variations in brightness.
