Background  To correlate retina-choroidal anatomy as assessed via swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) with retinal function as determined by best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG).    Methods  Thirty-three eyes from 33 patients including 16 with neovascular AMD (nvAMD) and 17 controls were included. Patients were included in the present study after a complete ophthalmologic examination, including BCVA, slit-lamp study, intraocular pressure measurement, dilated fundus examination after tropicamide instillation, SD-OCT, SS-OCT, fundus photographs and mfERG. Age, sex, BCVA, number of anti-VEGF intravitreal injections in the nvAMD group, were recollected. Outer retinal and choroidal thickness were determined at the fovea and 500 μm temporal, superior, nasal and inferior. First-order response from mfERG was collected. P1 amplitude was recorded in R1, R2 and the average of R1 + R2. The measurements recollected from the SS-OCT, mfERG and BCVA were compared.    Results  Better BCVA was found with thicker outer retina foveal thickness (r = 0.349;  P  = 0.047), with thicker subfoveal choroidal thickness (r = 0.443;  P  = 0.010), and with higher amplitude in P1 at R1 (r = 0.346;  P  = 0.037). Outer retina foveal thickness did not correlate with P1 amplitude at R1 (r = 0.072;  P  = 0.692), R2 (r = 0.265;  P  = 0.137) either with the average P1 amplitude at R1 + R2 (r = 0.253;  P  = 0.156). A thicker subfoveal choroidal thickness was related with higher amplitude in P1 at R1 (r = 0.383;  P  = 0.028), R2 (r = 0.409;  P  = 0.018) and the average of R1 + R2 (r = 0.419;  P  = 0.015).    Conclusions  Choroidal thickness demonstrated a positive correlation with retinal function in the sample studied, so a thicker choroid is related to a better retinal function measured with mfERG and BCVA.
