Abstract

Enhanced S-cone syndrome (ESCS), also known as Goldmann-Favre syndrome, is a retinal degeneration that presents in childhood and leads to progressive nyctalopia and visual field loss. In advanced cases, this degeneration can result in loss of central visual acuity. We describe the case of a 15-year-old boy with ESCS who presented with retinal detachment, a rare complication.
