Case of persistent corneal epithelial damage after cataract surgery leading to diagnosis of vitamin A deficiency.

Purpose: To report our findings of reduced full-field electroretinograms (ff-ERGs) and abnormal optical coherence tomographic (OCT) images in a patient with poor visual acuity after cataract surgery who was eventually diagnosed with vitamin A deficiency (VAD).

Methods: This was a clinical study of a patient who complained of blurred vision after cataract surgery. To determine the cause of the reduced vision, we recorded full-field electroretinograms (ff-ERGs) to determine the scotopic and photopic status of the retina.

Subclinical Ocular Changes after Intravitreal Injections of Different Anti-VEGF Agents for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

Intraocular inflammations (IOIs) have been reported to occur after intravitreal injections of brolucizumab, and one of their causes has been suggested to be drug-specific features. We evaluated the anterior chamber by the aqueous flare value (AFV) and the retina by flicker electroretinography (ERG) after the initial intravitreal injection of aflibercept (IVA), brolucizumab (IVBr), or faricimab (IVF) for neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). The AFV and flicker ERGs were determined before, 2 weeks after, and 4 weeks after the injections in 14 eyes of 14 patients for each drug.

Transient Increase of Flicker Electroretinography Amplitudes after Cataract Surgery: Association with Postoperative Inflammation.

Purpose: To determine the characteristics and cause of the increase in the amplitude of flicker electroretinography (ERG) after cataract surgery.

Design: Prospective, observational clinical study.

Participants: Thirty patients who underwent cataract surgery.

Case of cystoid macular edema induced by systemic administration of paclitaxel: evaluations with electroretinograms.

Purpose: To report abnormal full-field electroretinograms (ERGs) in a patient with cystoid macular edema (CME) induced by systemic paclitaxel.

Methods: This is an observational case report. Full-field ERGs were recorded to evaluate the retinal function using the RETeval system and conventional ERGs using contact lens electrodes with built-in white light-emitting diodes.

Effects of recording sequence on flicker electroretinographics recorded with natural pupils corrected for pupil area.

Background: A new handheld electroretinographic (ERG) recording system can record ERGs without mydriasis. However, this RETeval system cannot record ERGs from both eyes simultaneously. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine whether the sequence of the ERG recordings will alter the results.

Factors Affecting Photopic Negative Response Recorded with RET System: Study of Young Healthy Subjects.

Purpose: To determine whether there is a significant correlation between the amplitude of the photopic negative response (PhNR) and the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (pRNFLT) in eyes of young, healthy subjects.

Methods: We analyzed 136 eyes of 136 young, healthy subjects (89 males and 47 females; age, 20-29 years). The PhNRs were recorded with the RET system without mydriasis using red flashes on a blue background.

Case of lens-induced uveitis associated with supernormal flicker ERG amplitudes after cataract surgery.

Purpose: To report our findings in a case of lens fragment-induced uveitis associated with supernormal flicker electroretinograms (ERGs) twenty months after the cataract surgery.

Methods: This is an observational case report. Full-field flicker ERGs were recorded with the RETeval system.

RDH5-Related Fundus Albipunctatus in a Large Japanese Cohort.

Purpose: To investigate clinical characteristics of RDH5-related fundus albipunctatus (FAP) in a Japanese cohort.

Methods: Twenty-five patients from 22 pedigrees with RDH5-related FAP were studied. Ophthalmic medical records were reviewed.

Factors Affecting Mydriasis-Free Flicker ERGs Recorded With Real-Time Correction for Retinal Illuminance: Study of 150 Young Healthy Subjects.

Purpose: A small, full-field flicker electroretinogram (ERG) recording system was recently developed to record flicker ERGs without mydriasis (RETeval). The device delivers a stimulus with constant retinal illuminance by adjusting the retinal luminance to compensate for changes in the pupillary area. The purpose of this study was to determine what factors affect the fundamental components of the flicker ERGs recorded by RETeval in young healthy subjects.
