| Abstract: | A retrospective study was performed comparing the ERG results of 15 patients with Stargardt's disease and fundus flavimaculatus. Patients with fundus flavimaculatus had  fish-tail lesions with or without macular changes, while the Stargardt's group had macular atrophy without fish-tail flecks. The mean visual acuity was 20/200 for the Stargardt's patients compared with a mean of 20/80 for the fundus flavimaculatus patients. The Stargardt's photopic and scotopic amplitudes were respectively 33% and 34% of normal, while the fundus flavimaculatus values were less impaired at 58% and 64% of normal. |
