    Abstract:
    In a study of electro-ophthalmological responses of the EOG, the photopic and scotopic ERG, the OP and the VECP, in combination with fluorescein angiography and computerized perimetry, in 34 patients suffering from uveitis, chorioretinitis (lesions near the macula and at the periphery), papillitis or retrobulbar neuritis, the following results were obtained: Uveitis and chorioretinitis with lesions either near the macula or at the retinal periphery produce different responses; generally, pathologic responses of the EOG and ERG and normal VECP are obtained in cases of uveitis. Peripheral chorioretinal lesions lead to a diminution of the scotopic ERG, OP and EOG, in contrast to lesions near the macula, in which pathologically diminished amplitudes of the photopic ERG and VECP are found. In papillitis and retrobulbar neuritis, however, the most important peculiarity is the increase in latency and the decrease in amplitudes of the VECP, especially in retrobulbar neuritis.
