[Sjögren's reticular pigmentary dystrophy (author's transl)]. / Die retikuläre Pigmentdystrophie nach Sjögren.

ABSTRACT

An examination of two families with reticular pigmentary dystrophy of the retina is reported, and typical findings are reviewed. Visual actuity, visual fields, dark adaptation and color vision were normal; the photopic ERG was normal or subnormal, while the scotopic ERG was normal. Only the EOG findings were pathologic in all of the subjects examined. A description of the various forms of reticular dystrophy and of its differential diagnosis is followed by a discussion concerning the classification of all varieties of this disease as patterned dystrophies of the pigment epithelium.
