Clinical aspects of the electrical response of the human eye to an intense light stimulus

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This thesis describes the electrical response of normal and diseased human eyes to an intense light stimulus. The apparatus and technique has been developed from a standard clinical procudure known as electroretinography The method to be described enables one to observe the response in more detail than has been hitherto possible Two recently discovered components of the electroretinogram are clearly shown using this technique. One of these components, the Early Receptor Potential, has not been previously described in the human eye when the work was begun.
