    Abstract:

    ·AIM:To investigate an effective treatment for primary pigmentary degeneration of retina.·METHODS:Totally 60 cases 120 eyes enrolled by standard diagnosis underwent choroids revascularization surgery associated with medicine treatment.After 24-36 months,we observed visual acuity,visual field,electroretinogram(ERG).·RESULTS:There was decrease of vision acuity in 2 eyes(1.6%),no improvement in 15 eyes(12.5%),improvement ranged from 0.02 to 0.20 in 80 eyes(66.7%),over 0.20 in 23 eyes(19.2%).The examination of peripheral fields(60°)and central visual field(30°)was performed on 56 cases 112 eyes.The sensitivity of peripheral fields could be detected in 56 eyes after the treatment(50%),whereas only in 45 eyes,and no changes in 47 eyes before the treatment.The detection rate was 83.9%.ERG was done in 59 cases 110 eyes.Wave a and wave b could not be recorded in 100 eyes before or after the treatment;wave shape could be recorded in 100 eyes after the treatment with a detection rate of 90.9%.·CONCLUSION:Choroid revascularization surgery associated with medicine treatment can control the development of primary pigmentary degeneration of retina and improve visual acuity and visual function.·
