We recorded the pattern electroretinogram (PERG) to small (0.8 ~ and very large (15 ~ check sizes in normal subjects, in patients with early-stage glaucoma, and in patients with ocular hypertension. In glaucoma, the PERG amplitude was reduced. This reduction was more prominent for a check size of 0.
Color pattern-reversal visual evoked potential testing was performed in 99 normal eyes, 27 eyes with ocular hypertension and 30 eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma with the use of black-white, black-red and black-blue color checkerboard stimuli. The P1 wave peak time and amplitude of the eyes with
Diagnostic value of transient pattern electroretinogram (PERG), recorded by skin electrodes, was compared with Goldmann perimetry in cases of ocular hypertension and glaucoma. According to the assumption that the PERG mostly reflects activity of the retinal glanglion cells, and histological evidence
Subjectively assessed contrast sensitivity has been found to be abnormal in many patients with glaucoma. We previously reported the use of onset-offset visual evoked potential measurements to determine contrast threshold objectively. We now studied 216 patients (79 with ocular hypertension and 137 w
