| Abstract;Purpose: To assess retinal function topographically in the affected eyes with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). Participants and Method: We recorded multifocal electroretimogram (mERG) in 5 patients with unilateral CSC, and analyzed the topographical properties in the central visual field (rings #1+2). Results: mERG amplitudes in the CSC eyes were significantly reduced compared with the fellow eyes, for P1-N1 (58.5.+-.23.5%, p<0.05) and for P1-N2 (47.5.+-.15.0%, p<0.05). mERG latencies in the CSC eyes were significantly increased compared with those in the fellow eyes, for N1 (by 9.0.+-.8.1%, p<0.05) and for P1 (by 8.4.+-.7.0%, p<0.05). mERGs in the CSC eyes gradually recovered in the follow-up period. However, the responses did not recover to normal value during follow-up, even when the subretinal fluid disappeared ophthalmoscopically. Conclusions: These results show that a topographical analysis of the mERG is useful for clinical obsevation of CSC. (author abst.) |
