- Abstract
- We investigated abnormalities of the retinal cone ON- and OFF-pathways in 24 males with Schubert-Bornschein congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB). Substantial differences were found between both CSNB types. In incomplete type, a-, b- and d-waves were reduced and delayed, whereas in complete type only the b-wave showed significant changes. Oscillatory potentials (OPs) were not discernible from noise in incomplete CSNB and showed significant peak alterations of the ON-OPs only in complete CSNB. In the complete CSNB type, the ON pathway appeared to be mainly affected. In the incomplete CSNB form marked involvement of both the ON and the OFF pathways was noted. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
