A recent study conducted by researchers at New Valley University examined the correlation between visual acuity and multifocal electroretinogram (mf-ERG) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings in patients who underwent vitrectomy surgery for macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). The study included 40 patients, and the researchers found a moderate positive correlation between corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and mf-ERG amplitudes, central macular thickness (CMT), and the integrity of the inner segment/outer segment (IS/OS) junction. However, there was no significant correlation between CDVA and mf-ERG latencies. The researchers concluded that the integrated interpretation of CDVA, mf-ERG parameters, and OCT findings can provide valuable information about visual recovery and retinal microstructural changes following vitrectomy surgery for RRD. They also suggested that mf-ERG may be superior to CDVA in reflecting the extent of microstructural damage in the photoreceptor layer. [Extracted from the article] |
