Pattern electroretinogram in glaucoma [PDF]
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2006 Several studies have shown that the pattern electroretinogram, a direct, objective method of measuring retinal ganglion cell function, is altered early in ocular hypertension and glaucoma. Renewed interest in the pattern electroretinogram for early detection of pre-perimetric glaucoma has been sparked by noninvasive and reproducible methods of ...

Diabetic rats with high levels of endogenous dopamine do not show retinal vascular pathology
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 PurposeLimited research exists on the time course of long-term retinal and cerebral deficits in diabetic rodents. Previously, we examined short term (4–8 weeks) deficits in the Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat model of Type II diabetes.
