  • Hi......
    My 12 years old son was diagnosed with Stargard's since he was 5-1/2 years old. Genetic test were negative for Stargardt's. Now ERG and Fundus Photographs were done at Singapore Eye Hospital. Their diagnosis are Cone Rod Dystrophy. They did'nt recommend for Genetic testing again for Cone Rod Dystrophy. Can any help me what to do next to confirm if he has Cone rod dystrophy? God Bless you all Muhammad from Pakistan
