Research Abstract |
The photopic negative response (PhNR) of the focal electroretinogram (ERG) is driven by retinal ganglion cells. In the present series of studies, we attempt to apply the PhNR of the focal ERG to patients with glaucoma. We found that the PhNR was well correlated the local retinal sensitivity measured by the static visual field test, morphology of the optic nerve head and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness. The sensitivity and specificity to diagnose early glaucoma were 91%. Based on these results, the PhNR of the focal ERG could be a good objective parameter to measure the visual function of glaucoma patients.
