Spectral-domain OCT and microperimeter characterization of morphological and functional changes in X-linked retinoschisis

Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging. 2009 Jan-Feb;40(1):71-4. doi: 10.3928/15428877-20090101-16.

Abstract

A case of X-linked retinoschisis with anatomic and functional issues correlated by a constellation of methods, including spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, microperimeter, electroretinography, and multifocal electroretinography, is described. This case highlights the importance of microperimetry in the presence of normal or subtle abnormalities in full-field electroretinography. The ability of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography in diagnosis and follow-up in cases with X-linked retinoschisis is demonstrated.
