[Primary color P-VEP in diabetic retinopathy].
148 normal eyes and 123 eyes of diabetic retinopathy patients were examined the red, green, blue primary color and black/white P-VEPs, with the conclusion that the latencies of P100 were significantly delayed in the diabetic group, particularly that of the blue color, which was also in positive correlation with the level of blood sugar and the duration of diabetes. The consistency of blue P-VEP with fluorescein angiographic examination in diabetic retinopathy was good, and the abnormality ratio of the former (73.0%) was higher than that of the latter (60.2%). The results indicated that S-wave cones were damaged more readily than were L-wave cones, and the blue P-VEP was sensitive in monitoring the injury to visual function in diabetes.
