Purpose: To introduce the scanning laser ophthalmoscope-evoked
mfERG (SLO-mfERG) as a new method to measure focal retinal
function. Methods: Sixty-two healthy individuals and 12 patients
with Best's disease were examined. mfERGs were recorded using a
scanning laser ophthalmoscope as a stimulator and trigger device
(He-Neon 632.8 nm) as well as a fundus-monitoring system (infrared
730 nm). Results: Amplitudes in the central concentric area were
found to be significantly lower in patients with Best's disease
than in healthy controls, while no significant differences were
found for the more peripheral areas. Conclusion: SLO-mfERG is a
reliable new technique for topographic mapping of retinal function
under simultaneous control of fixation.
