Methods: LERGs at 5° and 15° macular regions were recorded from 27 normal subjects (54 eyes). The factors of age, different eyes and stimulate areas for LERG influence were observed. Meanwhile, the LERG and PVEP were recorded from 25 patients (35 eyes) with maculopathies for making contrast study. Results: In normal subjects, there was no significant influence of age to LERG. As the stimulated areas increased, the a- and b-wave amplitudes of LERG increased. In the patients with maculopathies, the a- and b-wave amplitudes of LERG at 5°, 10°and 15° macular regions were significantly lowered and the mean values of P1 latency were prolonged and N1-P1 amplitudes of VEP were lowered, comparing with the control group. In the nearing stimulated area (5°LERG and 14. 9×19°PVEP.),展开更多

Frequency spectrum may act as communication code between retina and V1.展开更多

It is also of significant value in the objective assessment of visual function in adult and pediatric cataract patients and for the diagnosis of and research on retinal and visual pathway diseases. This article systematically reviews visual electrophysiology techniques, their applications in the diagnosis and treatment of adult and pediatric cataracts, and factors influencing the application of visual electrophysiology during surgical treatment for cataracts.展开更多

Methods MfERG was performed in 66 patients （ 66 eyes） which were grouped into ： emmetropes （ n = 22 ） as the control eye ; high myopes without fundus lesions （ corrected visual acuity ≥ 1. 0, n = 15 ） ; and fellow eyes of high myopics with RRD （n = 29 ）. The first-order kernels N1, P1, N2 response density and latency were analyzed. Results When compared with the emmetropes group, the high myopes group had significantly reduced N1 , PI , and N2 wave response densities in rings 1 to 6 （ P 〈 0. 05 ）, delayed N1 wave latency in rings 3 to 6, and P1 wave latency in rings 3 to 5 （ P 〈 0. 05 ）. The fellow eyes group had significantly reduced N1, P1, and N2 wave response densities in rings 1 to 6 and significantly delayed N1 and P1 wave latencies in rings 3 to 6 （ P 〈0. 05） compared with the emmetropes group. Compared with the high myopes group, P1 wave response densities in rings 1 to 6, N1 wave response densities in rings 1,3, 4, and 6, and N2 wave response density in ring 1 were significantly decreased in the fellow eyes group （ P 〈 0. 05 ） ; whereas there were no significant differences in latencies between the two groups （P 〉0.05）. Conclusion MfERG can sensitively assess the early changes in visual function in fellow eyes in patients with RRD.展开更多
