Abstract
- Background and Objectives: Standard Full-field Electroretinography (SFE) is an invaluable procedure for evaluating the function of the retinal photoreceptors, pigmented epithelium and Müller cells. It is consists of scotopic, photopic, maximal response, oscillatory potential and 30 Hz flicker responses. Standardization of the results is a crucial step in interpreting the results efficiently and facilitates the process of the treatment. The aim of this study was to determine the normative data base of SFE method in Tabriz, IRAN. Materials and Methods: Eighty-five healthy individuals (with the age of 1st to 7th decades) who were resident in Tabriz city, were randomly selected and SFE was performed with DTL electrodes according to the ISCEV instruction. Results: The mean ages of male and female participants were 35.6±19.7 and 35.3±14.3 years, respectively (P=0.95). Conclusion: The standardization of the results of electroretinography is mandatory in any ophthalmology center to diagnose the relevant diseases and manage them properly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
