ERG-based Risk Assessment in CRVO
This case study involves an 87-year-old female patient sought medical attention due to gradual vision loss. She presented with a two-month history of blurred vision OD, a dense cataract and 20/200 best corrected visual acuity (BCVA).
ERG Supports Diagnostic Accuracy in a Pediatric Patient
This case study involving a 3-year-old boy with bilateral high myopia (-6.25D and -7.00D), normal structural results, and no extraocular features demonstrates how ERG addresses these challenges.
Is ERG Needed if You Have Access to a Good Structural Imaging Device?
ERG detects functional stress so that we can anticipate structural damage. In studies comparing ERG and imaging for diabetic retinopathy, ERG was better at predicting which patients would need intervention.
