Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Electrophysiologic findings in a case of multiple evanescent white-dot syndrome were studied. A 37-year-old woman presented with multiple white dots, granularity of the macula, and optic disc swelling in her left fundus. The electroretinogram and electro-oculogram revealed abnormal findings indicative of changes in the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptors. In addition, relative afferent pupillary defect, enlargement of the blind spot, a decrease in the critical fusion frequency, staining of the optic disc on fluorescein angiography and prolonged latency of the P100 component with decreased amplitude in pattern-reversal visual evoked cortical potential strongly suggested dysfunction of the optic nerve in this patient. |
