The combination of pattern visual evoked potentials (VEP) and multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) allows a detailed evaluation of macular function. Structural information of the macula and the retinal pigment epithelium can be obtained using optical coherence tomography (OCT), fundus autofluorescence (FAF), near-infrared autofluorescence (NIA) and spectral digital imaging (SDI).
The combination of these techniques provides new insights in macular pathology and facilitates a more detailed understanding of disease progression. Knowledge of the results of a combined approach of evaluation is especially helpful for early identification of macular disease.
