Electroretinogrophic Finding of the Stargardt's Ddosease

ABSTRACT

Stargardt's disease is a heredo-macular dystrophy which evidences itself by reduced visual acuity, bilaterally, slowly progressive lesion, and by color blindness starting in youth. The diagnosis of Stargardt's disease is usually made by biomicroscopy and fluoresceine angiography which show many irregular shaped, small yellowish flecks. According to Fishman, the characteristic prolonged time to obtain adequate rod amplitude in dark-adapted electroretionography is advisable for differential diagnosis of Stargardt's disease. We didn't find the abnormal finding of dark-adapted electroretinography in two patients of Stargardt's disease. So, more studies will be needed for electroretinography of Stargardt's disease.
