Assessing Residual Cone Function in Retinitis Pigmentosa Patients.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate cone function deterioration in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) using full field electroretinogram (ffERG), pattern electroretinogram (pERG), and optical coherence tomography (OCT) and their correlation with visual acuity (VA).

Methods: Clinical records (2008-2018) of patients with RP undergoing repeat electrophysiology were reviewed. Results of ffERG (30 Hz flicker and fused flicker amplitude [FFAmp]), pERG [p50 and n95], and macular OCT (ellipsoid zone [EZ] and outer segment thickness) were collected.
