This paper reviews current knowledge concerning the oscillatory potentials (OPs) of the electroretinogram (ERG). The first section describes the basic characteristics of the OPs primarily studied in healthy subjects. The behavior of the OPs is different from the a- and b-waves, indicating separate mechanisms for generation of the OPs compared with the major components of the ERG. The second section deals with the present view of the origin of the OPs collected from experimental studies of the vertebrate retina, including the primate. Findings favor the conclusion that the bipolar (or interplexiform) cells are the probable generators of the OPs. The third section gives clinical examples of the sensitivity of OPs to early disturbances of retinal function in different eye diseases.
本文综述了关于视网膜电图（ERG）振荡电位（OPs）的现有知识。第一部分描述了主要在健康受试者中研究的OPs的基本特征。OPs的行为不同于a波和b波，这表明与ERG的主要成分相比，OPs的产生机制不同。第二部分探讨了从包括灵长类动物在内的脊椎动物视网膜实验研究中收集到的关于OPs起源的当前观点。研究结果支持双极（或网间）细胞可能是OPs产生源的结论。第三部分给出了OPs对不同眼病视网膜功能早期紊乱敏感性的临床实例。
