title: Atraumatic loop electrodes for electroretinography.
abstract: A simple method is described for producing inexpensive, atraumatic electrodes for electroretinography. Scleral contact is obtained by a loop of ultra-lightweight stainless steel wire placed between the eye and lower lid. Recordings obtained by this method in animals are equal to those recorded with needle electrodes from the same ophthalmologically normal dog are presented.
