[ERG findings in structured conditions (PERG) in the diagnosis of glaucoma]

In 34 patients admitted to the clinical examination on the basis of the finding of the higher intraocular pressure stated in the private praxis the PERG examination has been performed. After the clinical examination (intraocular pressure, Humphrey perimeter, gonioskopy, C/D ratio) two groups of patients have been classified: 1. Glaucoma patients (21 persons) 2. Patients without glaucoma (13 persons). In the first group a significant lowering of the b65 amplitude of the PERG has been found. Thus the diagnostic value of the PERG in early glaucoma has been confirmed.
