Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of photoreceptor cell differentiation. An example of this process is found in Drosophila melanogaster. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of a photoreceptor cell, as found in the eye, the primary visual organ of most organisms. Development of a photoreceptor, a cell that responds to incident electromagnetic radiation, particularly visible light. Any process that decreases the rate, frequency or extent of the progression of the cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Cell development does not include the steps involved in committing a cell to a specific fate. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of eye photoreceptor development. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency or extent of the progression of the cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Cell development does not include the steps involved in committing a cell to a specific fate. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of compound eye photoreceptor development. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of anatomical structure morphogenesis. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell differentiation. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Cell development does not include the steps involved in committing a cell to a specific fate. Development of a photoreceptor, a sensory cell in the eye that reacts to the presence of light. They usually contain a pigment that undergoes a chemical change when light is absorbed, thus stimulating a nerve. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of eye photoreceptor development.
