Title: Maturation of the visual evoked response in the dog
Abstract: Dogs 1–28 days of age were exposed to flashes of white light and the visual evoked response (VER) recorded by means of topical scalp electrodes. The earliest VER was a long-latency negative wave which appeared at 10 days postnatally. The electroretinogram (ERG) was also recorded and a small negative wave appeared at 10 days postnatally. At day 14, the short-latency negative wave of the VER appeared. A double-negative wave was then present at day 14. The b-wave of the ERG was first recordable at day 15, and at day 16 the positive-negative complex of the VER was first observed. The latencies of the VER progressively decreased from day 16 to day 28 as did those of the ERG.
