Electroretinography (ERG) Testing: Understanding Your Retinal Health

Electroretinography (ERG) is a specialized diagnostic test that measures the electrical activity of the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of your eye. This test helps our doctor with assessing how well your retina responds to light and can detect early signs of various retinal conditions before symptoms appear.

Why is ERG Testing Important?

ERG testing is crucial for diagnosing and managing conditions such as:

• Retinal Degeneration (e.g., Retinitis Pigmentosa)

• Diabetic Retinopathy

• Macular Disorders

• Glaucoma

• Inherited Retinal Diseases

​​​​​​​By analyzing retinal function, ERG testing helps guide treatment plans and monitor disease progression, ensuring you receive the best possible care.
