title: Full-field electroretinograms during general anesthesia in normal children compared to examination with topical anesthesia.
abstract: Full-field electroretinograms were obtained from 20 normal children during general anesthesia and compared with electroretinograms obtained with topical anesthesia. Disoprofol and fentanyl induced a reduction in the b-wave amplitudes and an increase in the cone b-wave implicit time, but the changes were small and fall within the range limits seen with topical anesthesia (i.e., average +/- 2 SD).
