Abstract. Purpose:To report a case of optic neuritis with variable responses of multifocal visual evoked potential(mfVEP)in different quandrants. Case and Method:A 60-year-old male presented with pain and impaired visual acuity in his left eye. His corrected visual acuity was 1.2 right and 0.5 left. It decreased to 0.05 left 3 days later. He recovered 7 months later with visual acuity of 1.5 after systemic corticosteroid. The left eye was tested by mfVEP during the course of the disease. Due attention was paid to differences in mfVEP response in different quandrants. Findings in 20 eyes of 20 healthy volunteers served as baseline value for mfVEP. Results:During the acute phase, mfVEP was reduced in quadrants that showed only slight reduction by automated perimetry. During the phase of recovery, mfVEP showed prolonged latency time in quadrants that showed normal responses by automated perimetry. After recovery, mfVEP had sufficiently recovered in quadrants that showed slight decrease in sensitivity during the acute phase. Conclusion:Multifocal visual evoked potential(mfVEP)promises to be useful in evaluating the therapeutic effect on optic neuritis and in testing the visual function in the periphery.
