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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Simply put, ERG consists of taking measurements of the electrical potentials generated by neurons and other cells in the retina from the surface of the cornea. Many ocular diseases cause abnormalities ...

There are many types of inherited retinal dystrophy (IRD). Here are the most common: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a group of diseases that cause light-sensitive cells in the retina to die. About 1 ...

The presentation, “OpRegen® Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) Cell Therapy for Patients with Geographic Atrophy (GA): Month 24 Results from the Phase 1/2a Trial,” will include anatomical and functional ...

The A-wave is a positive wave that mainly originates from the cornea of the eye, while the B-wave is a negative wave that represents the electrical response of the retina's rods and cones to light.
