Abstract: (1) Background: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a diabetes mellitus (DM) complication where neurodegeneration plays a significant role. The aim of our study was to determine the differences between type 1 DM (T1DM) and 2 DM (T2DM) in the multifocal electroretinogram (mERG).; (2) Methods: A mERG study was performed in two groups, a T1DM group with 72 eyes of 36 patients compared with 72 eyes of 36 patients with T2DM, randomly selected from our DM databases, without DR. We studied how HbA1c and DM duration affects amplitude and implicit time of mERG; (3) Results: the study of DM duration shows patients with T1DM have lower amplitude values compared to T2DM patients, although implicit time increases in patients with T2DM. HbA1c over 7% only affects T1DM patients with an increase of implicit time; (4) Conclusions: the retinas of patients with T1DM seem more sensitive to changes in HbA1c levels than in patients with DMT2, although the duration of diabetes affects both types of DM patients.
