Cone-rod dystrophy (Also known as rod-cone dystrophy, rod-cone degeneration, and cone-rod degeneration) is a clinical condition in which cones and rods are degenerating. These are photoreceptor cells situated in the retina - the innermost layer of the eyeball and the most sensitive part of the eye.

When they reach the eye, the light rays reflected from the objects enter the eyeball through the cornea and get refracted as it passes through the eyeball. Finally, they converge on the retina. The light rays get caught up by the photoreceptor cells of the retina, i.e. the rods and cones. They initiate a series of photochemical, electrical, and nervous reactions. Finally, a nerve impulse gets created as a result of these reactions. All these constitute the first step to the formation of visual sense.
