✦ Synopsis

The authors recorded pattern electroretinograms at different spatial frequencies in 16 patients affected with ocular hypertension. In 12 of these subjects the electroretinograms dropped in amplitude around 2 cycles/degree. The authors attributed this finding to ocular hypertension, hypothesizing ischernic damage at the head of the optic nerve with consequent fiber atrophy and degeneration of ganglion cells.

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.

To determine whether long-term reduction of intraocular pressure leads to a corresponding preservation of the pattern electroretinogram (PERG), PERGs were studied in 21 patients with ocular hypertension who had received unilateral timolol therapy for a minimum of 6 years.

Electroretinograms (ERGs) were obtained from pigmented and albino rats to step luminance changes of an unpatterned TV screen. Surround luminance was increased until the ERG became small and focal. In pigmented rats the ERG at on was positive, earlier, and about twice the amplitude of the negative ER
