Assessing the impact of non-dilating the eye on full-field electroretinogram and standard flash response

We investigated the possibility of performing electroretinography (ERG) in non-pharmacologically dilated eyes using brighter flash (time-integrated) luminance. Photopic ( N  = 26; background 25.5 cd·m −2 , white LED flashes) and scotopic ERG ( N  = 23, green LED flashes) luminance response functions...

Description
Summary:We investigated the possibility of performing electroretinography (ERG) in non-pharmacologically dilated eyes using brighter flash (time-integrated) luminance. Photopic ( N  = 26; background 25.5 cd·m −2 , white LED flashes) and scotopic ERG ( N  = 23, green LED flashes) luminance response functions were obtained simultaneously in a dilated (DE) and non-dilated eye (NDE). In the NDE, photopic V max b-wave amplitude was reduced by 14% ( P
