[Electro-ophthalmological findings in so-called partial "retinopathia pigmentosa" (author's transl)]. 1977

A Denden

A description is given of bilateral, sectoral retinopathia pigmentosa in a female subject and her eldest son. The diagnosis is difficult without an ERG and EOG because of the paucity of symptoms. The disease is characterized by subnormal ERG potentials and a flat EOG curv. In questionable cases, periodic re-examinations and the examination of family members can be helpful.

D004585	Electrooculography	Recording of the average amplitude of the resting potential arising between the cornea and the retina in light and dark adaptation as the eyes turn a standard distance to the right and the left. The increase in potential with light adaptation is used to evaluate the condition of the retinal pigment epithelium.	EOG,Electrooculograms,Electrooculogram
