VEPs in rAION. rAION was induced in the right eye of each rat; the untreated left eye served as a control. Animals were euthanized at various times following induction. Differences in amplitude between individual panels are not comparable. In all panels, solid traces represent the control (left) eye, dotted traces the experimental (right) eye. The two similar traces in each panel are duplicate recordings. (A) Responses in an animal 1 day after laser irradiation of the right eye with no photoinducible dye (positive control). VEP amplitudes are very similar in both eyes. (B) There is a large reduction in the VEP of the treated eye 1 day following maximum rAION induction. (C) VEPs from a different animal recorded 3 days after rAION induction. A 23–28% decrease in amplitude is present in the experimental eye. (D) Long-term changes in the same rat (rat C) 45 days after rAION induction. The experimental eye continues to show an approximate 23–28% decrease in amplitude.
