Electroretinography recording on a dilated pupil might produce a maximum amplitude and, therefore, provide a better way to investigate retinal function in birds.
Electroretinography is a procedure in which the summed electrical responses from the retinal photoreceptors are recorded by placing electrodes on the corneal surface and skin adjacent to the eye.
Focal
electroretinography (fERG) is used to study a discrete region of the retina and determine if there is significantly more electrical activity in that area compared to the surrounding retina.
Ophthalmoscopically, there is an early bull's-eye maculopathy, but the entire retina is affected early, as evidence by full-field
electroretinography changes.

The screening should include a visual field exam as well as one of the advanced objective technologies: spectral domain OCT, autofluorescence, or multifocal
electroretinography. Use of the outmoded Amsler grid is discouraged.
An
electroretinography (ERG) was done under white light escotopic environment with palpebral electrode under pharmacologic sedation and mydriasis using Akonic System BioPC with three channels to register the evocated bio-potentials (Figure 5).

The use of
electroretinography for retinal functional evaluation can be useful in assessing these cases [1].
Other methods such as multifocal
electroretinography have been investigated in order to develop a new mfERG-paradigm glaucoma analysis protocol and to gain a better understanding of glaucoma [5], however, there is not still an IOP micro system implanted inside the ocular glove to measure continuously IOP to understand glaucoma etiology.
