This bi-modal study of electroretinographic characteristics found that the most prominent anomaly associated with diabetes was a prolongation of the implicit time of the OP2 of the scotopic ffERG, while the most prominent added effect of non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy was a further prolongation of the OP2 implicit time. Although the variation in ERG characteristics is far too large for diagnostic purposes, the close association of the oscillatory potentials with the amacrine cells of the retina indicate that their function is particularly sensitive to diabetes.
