The results of central static quantitative perimetry and pattern reversal VEP were compared. The amplitude and latency of P<sub>100</sub>were correlated with the total loss of central visual threshold in maculopathies. While the P<sub>100</sub> latency was not correlated with the total loss of the central visual threshold in neuropathies, their latency delay was more obvious than that in maculopathies. We arrived at the conclusion that both VEP and visual field are necessary for assessing function loss and reflecting different pathological mechanisms in macular and optic nerve diseases.展开更多
