OBJECTIVE To monitor the difference in conversion rates to multiple sclerosis (MS) in 46 patients with optic neuritis between patients with multifocal visual evoked potential latency delay and those with normal latency. DESIGN Prospective case series. SETTING Metropolitan neuro-ophthalmology clinic. PARTICIPANTS Forty-six patients with optic neuritis who did not have a diagnosis of MS on ...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of vertical prism induced stress on binocular visual evoked potentials. methods: using checkerboard stimulus patterns in two spatial frequencies (sfs) of 0.48 cpd as a low sf and 2.18 cpd as a moderate sf reversing with temporal frequency of 4 hz, the effect of increasing visual stress using vertical prisms of 0, 1, 2 and 3 prism diopters on binocular visual evok...

PURPOSE To compare latencies of conventional visual evoked potentials (cVEPs) and multifocal VEPs (mfVEPs) in the same patients. Previous reports of prolonged cVEP latency suggest a vehicle for detecting abnormal ganglion cells and for monitoring neuroprotection. METHODS Seventy-five glaucomatous eyes (47 patients), 75 eyes with suspected glaucoma (46 patients), and 41 control eyes (22 subjec...

PURPOSE Uveitis is the inflammation of the uveal tract, which usually also affects the retina and vitreous humor. The electrophysiological examination is an objective ocular examination that includes the electroretinogram, visual evoked potentials, the electrooculogram, the multifocal electroretinogram, and multifocal visual evoked potentials. Our aim is to review the literature of the use of t...
