Multifocal electroretinogram in branch retinal vein occlusion - 26/08/11
Abstract |
Purpose |
To describe the response from multifocal electroretinography in branch retinal vein occlusion.
Design |
Prospective observational case control series.
Methods |
Multifocal electroretinography was recorded in 15 patients with temporal branch retinal vein occlusion and 21 control subjects using a visual evoked response imaging system.
Results |
There were significant differences in mean amplitude (P = .01) and latency (P = .001) between thrombotic and nonthrombotic retina in the same eyes, as well as in patients compared with control subjects.
Conclusion |
Responses from multifocal electroretinography demonstrate retinal dysfunction in branch retinal vein occlusion; additional studies will demonstrate whether multifocal electroretinography has a prognostic value.
