Ayurvedic Treatment for Cone Dystrophy

Sanjeevannetralaya12 Dec, 2024Health

The retina contains two main types of light-sensing cells: rods and cones. Rods are highly sensitive and function better in low light, while cones are more effective in bright light and are responsible for colour vision. Although cones are distributed throughout the retina, they are most densely packed around the macula. Cone dystrophy impairs the function of cones, resulting in a loss of central and colour vision. In cases of stationary dystrophy, individuals experience a stable level of sight loss from birth or early childhood.
