Unilaterally extinguished electroretinograms in an eye with normal visual acuity and visual field.

The pathogenesis of this patient's condition still remains unknown, while unilateral retinitis pigmentosa, unilateral pigmentary retinopathy, acute zonal occult outer retinopathy, and autoimmune retinopathy can all be considered as possible explanations. The uniqueness of this case study is that the extinguished ERG responses are predictive of the functional alteration in the affected eye, when the initial visual acuity and the visual field were normal.
