My Hospital Appointment – ERG test – Electroretinography Part 1

A close up of my green eye. With dilated pupils due to Electroretinography test
My dilated pupils today for my ERG test. Which was very interesting and abit like something out of a 70s sci-fi show and was all abit Clockwork Orange.
I will explain more in another post but had sensors put inside my lower eyelids and across the eyeballs, on each eye.
Anyone that knows me will know know how freaked out I was about this 😕 especially when the letter said wires… In eyes.
Then, pads put around my eyes and forehead were then plugged into a machine by coloured wires from the pads on my face ☺
