title: Pattern and flash electroretinogram following increased intraocular pressure in pigeons.
abstract: We have observed an increase in time to peak and a decrease in amplitude for both the pattern electroretinogram (PERG) and the electroretinogram (ERG) in pigeons following an elevation in intraocular pressure (IOP). The changes in PERG were highly correlated to the changes in ERG. However, they differed in that significant changes from baseline values occurred at lower levels of IOP for PERG than ERG for the amplitude, and in some cases for the time to peak.
