UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : ⁷³ Retinitis pigmentosa 85: A form of retinitis pigmentosa, a retinal dystrophy belonging to the group of pigmentary retinopathies. Retinitis pigmentosa is characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination and primary loss of rod photoreceptor cells followed by secondary loss of cone photoreceptors. Patients typically have night vision blindness and loss of midperipheral visual field. As their condition progresses, they lose their far peripheral visual field and eventually central vision as well. RP85 is an autosomal recessive form manifesting as early-onset progressive difficulty to adapt in dim light and gradually decreasing visual acuity in both eyes.

MalaCards based summary : Retinitis Pigmentosa 85, is also known as rp85. An important gene associated with Retinitis Pigmentosa 85 is AHR (Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor). Affiliated tissues include eye and retina, and related phenotypes are reduced visual acuity and progressive night blindness
