• no signs of photoreceptor degeneration are detected in mice at up to 24 months of age
• loss of the basal infoldings and accumulation of amorphous deposits between the RPE and Bruch's membrane are seen at 24 months of age
• vacuoles are present in the RPE at 24 months of age
• changes in the RPE are more severe in homozygous mice compared to heterozygous mice
• late onset degeneration of the retinal pigment epithelium
• at 24 months of age, the maximal rod a wave is significantly reduced
