Abstract
Since 1975 a group of patients with early stages of senile disciform macula degeneration (S.D.M.D.) have been investigated at regular intervals. Several stages of development, each with a different clinical significance, have been identified. The results of mesopic-photopic static perimetry and fluorescein fundus angiography will be compared. Mesopic-photopic static perimetry is a highly sensitive method for following changes in the degenerative process.
Representing the Junius Kuhnt Research group of the Eye Clinic of the University of Amsterdam (D. Bakker, P. Bos, P. de Jong & Versteeg, N.T.).
