Visual Field (VF) Versus Visual Evoked Cortical Potential (VECP) in Multiple Sclerosis Patients

  • Chapter
Fourth International Visual Field Symposium Bristol, April 13–16,1980

Part of the book series: Documenta Ophthalmologica Proceedings Series ((DOPS,volume 26))

Abstract

29 Patients with multiple sclerosis were examined by means of static perimetry and visual evoked cortical response. In 16 eyes with a normal VECP an abnormal visual field was detected, while in 2 eyes with a normal visual field an abnormal VECP was found. Static perimetry appears to be at least as sensitive as VECP.
