Objective To observe the changes of electroretino gram(ERG) in temporary traumatic ocular hypotension and to detect the possiblem echanism. Method The rabbit model with ocular hypotenstion was made. At the 2nd, 4th, 8th, 16th week after trauma, the ocular tension and ERG was examined. Result Amplitude of b wave in treated group was 2.5 times as high as that in the control at the 2nd week after trauma, and then decrease to 1.5 times as high as that in the control at the 16th week. Conclution Higher amplitude of b-wave of ERG in rabbit with ocular hypotension may be related to blood circulation congestion, which might lead to accumulation of the metabolic toxin.

Objective To observe the changes of the multifocal electr oretinograph (mf-ERG) in commotio retinae. Methods The affected eyes (traumatic group) and the fellow eyes (control group) of 31 patients with unilateral commotio retinae were examined by RETI scan 3.15 system. The responses of 61 retinal regions were recorded, and the average amplitude densities of the N1 (the first negative) wave and P1 (the first positive) wave in different regions of retinal were analyzed. Results The average amplitude densities of 1-4 rings in N1wave and 1-5 rings in P1wave were much lower in traumatic group than those in the control. Conclusions The average amplitude densities of N1wave and P1wave of mf-ERG in retin al affected regions decreases markedly in eyes with commotio retina; mf-ERG may provide the quantificational and orientational detection for the visual ability of the eyes with commotio retinae.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2004，20：226-228)
