Abstract

Short comparison between psychophysic and electrodiagnostic tests in 20 eyes with macular edema from diabetic retinopathy. De Lange's curve, the critical flicker frequency in central fixation and the macular ERG are compared with the classical EOG and global ERG data. The methodology is briefly described. It allows a new approach of the macula and the macular ERG responses confirms the clinical tests.
