| Description |
Our purpose was to evaluate the utility of a new handheld portable device to quickly ascertain the extent of optic nerve dysfunction by measuring light-evoked retinal ganglion cell function proximal to the site of optic nerve damage. Understanding the function of the retinal ganglion cells and metabolic coupling to blood flow may provide important prognostic information for recovery of vision. A portable device circumvents conventional requirements of foveal fixation, image clarity, an ERG laboratory, trained technician, and corneal electrodes. |
