Optical coherence tomographic images and multifocal electroretinograms were obtained from 22 eyes of 14 patients with diabetic macular edema and from 9 eyes of 9 normal subjects. The expression of macular edema may influence both anatomic and functional results. Our study revealed a significant direct correlation between the structural disturbances and the reduction of the electric responces from the macular area recorded with the multifocal ERG system. The macular responses recorded with the multifocal ERG system may be a useful tool to evaluate macular function objectively. The combination of OCT and multifocal ERG may provide of objective criteria for the evaluation and assessment of diabetic macular edema.
