Macular ERG’s Elicited by Checkerboard Pattern Stimuli

  • Chapter
ERG, VER and Psychophysics

Part of the book series: Documenta Ophthalmologica ((DOPS,volume 13))

Abstract

Bar-pattern electroretinography was first investigated in detail by Johnson, Riggs & Schick. (1966) More recently, Lawwill (1973, 1974) has used this technique clinically in a large series of patients with various forms of macular dysfunction. This paper reports some of our recent work with checkerboard-pattern electroretinography of the macular region.
