title: [The rhythmic ERG in the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy in cataract patients].
abstract: The paper describes a new method for diagnosing initial stages of diabetic retinopathy in the presence of cataract--analysis of amplitude parameters of averaged ERG. The usage of different frequency stimuli allows to separately judge about the state of peripheral (10 Hz) and central (40 Hz) segments of the retina. The stage of diabetic retinopathy can be judged by degree of depression of rhythmical ERG. Ophthalmoscopic and fluorescein angiographic verification of the method conducted in 70 patients (94 eyes) after cataract extraction confirmed its high informativeness.
