General information

Rod–Cone Dysplasia (Rdy) is a rare form of early-onset blindness caused by degeneration of the retina. This variant of the disorder is caused by an incompletely dominant mutation to the gene CRX. It has been observed in the Abyssinian, Somali and Savannah breeds.

Clinical features

Rdy-affected cats have retarded development and degeneration of the photoreceptor cells. Kittens are blind when they are about 7 weeks old.
