    This study introduces a novel corneal contact lens electrode for recording electroretinograms. The silver-coated lens offers excellent optical clarity for reliable and convenient eye signal measurements without anesthesia.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Neuroscience

    Background:

    • The electroretinogram (ERG) is a crucial diagnostic tool for evaluating retinal function.
    • Traditional ERG recording methods can be invasive or require anesthesia, potentially affecting results and patient comfort.
    • There is a need for non-invasive, comfortable, and optically clear electrodes for reliable ERG measurements.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a novel corneal contact lens electrode for recording patterned electroretinograms (pERGs).
    • To assess the feasibility of using the electrode without corneal anesthesia.
    • To determine the optical characteristics and reliability of the developed electrode.

    Main Methods:

    • A corneal contact lens electrode was fabricated using a silver-coated hard contact lens placed on a soft contact lens.
