Scientists at the Jules Stein Eye Institute at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA have discovered that certain ...

The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a monolayer of multifunctional epithelial cells that physically abuts the photoreceptor layer and effectively forms the posterior blood–retinal barrier. RPE ...

Night blindness is caused by vitamin A deficiency, congenital mutations, and other eye diseases. Learn about symptoms, causes ...

Early reports of electroretinogram (ERG) changes in BCR suggested possible inner retinal dysfunction 14 with eventual additional outer retinal involvement. 13,15 This report describes our experience ...

Researchers at Laval University and the CERVO Brain Research Center in Québec have developed a groundbreaking, non-invasive method to diagnose Parkinson’s disease (PD) early using a simple eye ...

The ERG was recorded after a 15-minute mesopic retinal adaptation. The subjects’ pupils were dilated with 1% tropicamide. The ERG stimuli for eliciting OPs were white flashes from a photostimulator ...

Conclusion Functional and structural impairments have already started in diabetic retina even in the absence of visible retinal lesions. Subtle microvascular abnormalities rather than ganglion cell ...

While a previous publication from our group shows that mglur6b mutants lose the majority of ON response from ERG experiments (Huang et al., 2012), considering the distribution of both EAAT5B and ...

Electroretinography (ERG) is an objective, slightly invasive method capable of measuring electrical potentials from retinal neurons in response to light stimulation. This technique has proven ...

The electroretinogram (ERG) is an electrical response of the retina to photic stimulation. The ERG is similar to an electrocardiogram in that it shows the electrical health of the retina, similar to ...
