ERG has several applications in epidemiological studies:
- Prevalence Studies: ERG can help determine the prevalence of retinal diseases in different populations. - Risk Factor Analysis: By correlating ERG results with demographic, genetic, and environmental factors, researchers can identify potential risk factors for retinal diseases. - Natural History Studies: ERG can be used to monitor the progression of retinal diseases over time, providing insights into their natural history. - Effectiveness of Interventions: ERG can evaluate the effectiveness of treatments and interventions for retinal diseases.
