Retinitis Pigmentosa
2. What will happen to my sight?
Early symptoms of RP will normally begin to manifest
themselves between the ages of 10 and 30.
The most common first symptom of RP is a difficulty
seeing in low light conditions. This may be associated with a contraction
of the peripheral visual field, so called tunnel vision, although
in some cases of RP the central vision is affected first.
Later on in the condition, sensitivity to bright lights
and sunlight may become a problem.
