Novel ERG method aids in monitoring patients with posterior uveitis

DENVER — A simplified method of electroretinography may aid in monitoring patients with posterior uveitis, according to a presenter here.
“ERGs have been very reliable in detecting retinal function. However, it takes a long time for the patient to do it, around 3 hours,” Ngoc Trong Tuong Than told Healio/OSN at the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology meeting. “We have a new modality, flicker ERG, that takes around 15 minutes for each patient.”
