This study introduces a new, non-invasive Carpi-Tomei (CT) electrode for electroretinographic (ERG) investigations. The novel technique uses a conducting liquid to detect ocular potentials without direct eye contact, reducing patient discomfort.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Neuroscience

Background:

  • Conventional electroretinography (ERG) uses invasive corneal or conjunctival electrodes.
  • These electrodes require direct eye contact, causing patient discomfort.
  • A need exists for non-invasive ERG recording methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel, non-invasive technique for detecting electroretinographic (ERG) potentials.
  • To introduce the Carpi-Tomei (CT) electrode, designed for non-invasive ERG measurements.
  • To assess the feasibility of this new non-invasive ERG approach.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a new ERG electrode (Carpi-Tomei or CT electrode).
  • The CT electrode utilizes a conducting liquid layer between the eye and an external conductor.

  • This setup derives ocular potentials without direct ocular contact.

    • Main Results:

    • Successful assembly of prototype Carpi-Tomei (CT) electrodes.
    • Preliminary testing demonstrated the feasibility of the non-invasive ERG detection technique.
    • The proposed method avoids direct contact with the eye.

    Conclusions:

    • The Carpi-Tomei (CT) electrode offers a promising non-invasive alternative for ERG investigations.
    • This technique has the potential to significantly improve patient comfort during ERG testing.
    • Further validation is warranted to establish the clinical utility of the CT electrode.
