Intact cone inner segment mosaics underlying non-waveguiding cones have also been described in other inherited retinal diseases, such as achromatopsia [e.g. (16, 32, 33)], RDH5-associated fundus albipunctatus (34), oligocone trichromacy (35), retinitis pigmentosa and Usher syndrome (36). Here, RDH5 is linked to achromatopsia.
