Detection of early age-related macular degeneration using novel functional parameters of the focal cone electroretinogram [PDF]
The focal cone electroretinogram is a sensitive marker for macular disease, but have we unlocked its full potential? Typically assessment of waveform parameters is subjective and focuses on a small number of locations (e.g. the a-wave).
