Editing Color blindness (section)

====Other genetic causes====
Several inherited diseases are known to cause color blindness, including [[achromatopsia]], [[cone dystrophy]], [[Leber's congenital amaurosis]] and [[retinitis pigmentosa]]. These can be [[congenital]] or commence in childhood or adulthood. They can be static/stationary or [[Progressive disease|progressive]]. Progressive diseases often involve deterioration of the retina and other parts of the eye, so often progress from color blindness to more severe [[visual impairment]]s, up to and including total blindness.
