    Abstract:
    We recorded ERG b- and c-waves from rabbit eyes with experimental retinal detachment and investigated the relationship between amplitude of the ERG and extent of the detachment. Three different extents of detachment (20, 60, 100% of the fundus) were made in three different groups of rabbits. In all 3 groups, the amplitude of both b- and c-waves remarkably decreased 1 hour after detachment and recovered at 6 hours to values corresponding to the extent of detachment. At 12 hours, the b-wave amplitude remained at almost the same values at 6 hours, whereas the c-wave amplitude showed further reduction. It was suggested that functional disorder in undetached retina occurred earlier in the retinal pigment epithelium than in the sensory retina of the eyes in the acute stage of the retinal detachment.
