Case Report
Overview
Case report of the different visual functions of the right and left eye of 60-years old man with Stargardt disease is presented. The difference in best corrected visual acuity between both eyes is accompanied with corresponding various alteration of the central retinal activity using multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) and asymmetrical defects of the IS/OS photoreceptor junction using HD-OCT.
Key words:
HD OCT, IS/OS photoreceptors junction, Stargardt disease, central retinal dystrophy, multifocal electroretinography (mfERG)
