Flicker electroretinogram recorded with portable ERG device in prematurely born schoolchildren with and without ROP.

Published in: Documenta ophthalmologica. Advances in ophthalmology (2019)

Prematurely born schoolchildren exhibit longer implicit time of the 30-Hz flicker ERG response compared to controls, suggesting a possible abnormality of the retinal cone system function. Under such circumstances, portable ERG device might be used clinically as a screening tool for retinal function evaluation in prematurely born children.
