  • Title: Sprint car visual loss.
    Author: Purvin V, Maturi R, Vaphiades MS.
    Journal: Surv Ophthalmol; 2004; 49(1):90-5. PubMed ID: 14711442.
    Abstract:
    A 16-year-old boy developed bilateral visual loss 24 hours after a sprint car accident. Bilateral central scotomas were demonstrated but were unexplained by a thorough eye examination and neuro-imaging. A diagnosis of commotio retinae was established by multi-focal ERG testing. This relatively new technique is discussed, including comparison to full-field ERG and clinical applications.
