Abstract

This chapter describes various methods of the assessment of visual function used for assessing disease progression and treatment response in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). These methods include full-field stimulus testing (FST), near-infrared autofluorescence (NIR-AF), quantitative fundus autofluorescence (qAF), and quantitative near-infrared autofluorescence (qNIR-AF). This chapter will also outline the protocol for adaptive optics (AO) imaging of RP patients and cover how each of these methods is used for RP patients, with details including the expected findings, as evidenced by recent literature.
