Pigmentary abnormalities of the macula in rhesus monkeys: clinical observations.

R W Bellhorn, C D King, G D Aguirre, H Ripps, I M Siegel, H C Tsai.   

Abstract

In a survey of 546 rhesus monkeys of various ages, 6.1% of the animals showed ophthalmoscopically visible hypopigmented spots in their maculas. There was a statistically significant correlation between the age of the animal and the degree of hypopigmentation. Electroretinographic responses and visually evoked potentials were evaluated in a selected group of monkeys with and without hypopigmented macular spots. No significant change in retinal function as a result of the macular abnormalities could be detected.
