[Electroretinography in evaluation of neuroprotective effect in an experimental model of glaucoma].

ERG is suitable for use in preclinical studies of glaucoma drugs as an indicative in vivo method for diagnosing the state of the retina in animals. The use of this method is especially valuable for conducting preclinical studies of drugs that involve long-term use when ophthalmoscopy and intraocular pressure alone cannot fully characterize the course of glaucoma, and animal euthanasia seems unnecessary and inhumane.
