Multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) provides functional and objective evidence of retinal dysfunction. We have found mfERG to be especially useful in the management of occult outer retinopathy and Stargardt's disease.

Purpose: To evaluate the differences in fundus tessellation among various severities using multifocal visual electrophysiology (MfERG) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) for clinical grading and treatment.
Methods: This study included 52 patients totaling 87 eyes. The Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) grid division method was utilized to assess Grade of fundus tessellation.

Electroretinography (ERG) is a non-invasive technique for evaluating the retinal function in various ocular diseases. Its results are useful for diagnosing ocular disorders and assessing disease progression or treatment effectiveness. Since numerous studies are based on animal models, validating the ERG results from animals is pivotal.

The aim of this study is to describe genotype and phenotype of patients with bestrophinopathy. The case records were reviewed retrospectively, findings of multimodal imaging such as color fundus photograph, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fundus autofluorescence, electrophysiological, and genetic tests were noted. Twelve eyes of six patients from distinct Indian families with molecular diagnosis were enrolled.

Although hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is used to treat systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), it is associated with retinal toxicity. Early diagnosis can prevent the further progression of HCQ-associated retinopathy by discontinuing HCQ treatments. This study aimed to evaluate the early diagnostic parameters in patients with SLE treated with HCQ and identify the best approach using multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) and swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) to reflect subclinical retinal toxicity.
