THINK YOU KNOW ERG? THINK AGAIN
RETeval: ERG Simplified
Electroretinography isn’t what it used to be. FDA-cleared and made in the US, the RETeval® offers a portable, handheld solution that is comfortable for patients, easy for clinicians, and provides an efficient, objective functional assessment of retinal health.
Catch the Latest Wave of Functional Assessment
Diabetic Retinopathy
The RETeval’s DR Assessment Protocol predicts your patient’s risk for progression to inform your treatment protocols and guide referral timing.
Optic Nerve Disorders
Detect and track changes to the ganglion cell layer with the RETeval device’s PhNR protocol to aid and support diagnosis, management, and treatment of optic nerve neuropathies.
“I firmly believe that the RETeval ffERG test for functional diabetic retinopathy management will change the way we practice in 2024 in much the same way that OCT testing for structural DR management changed the way we practiced 20 years ago.”

Modern Fundamentals of Diabetic Retinopathy Management in Optometry
A team of 14 optometrists set out to simplify and standardize diabetic retinopathy assessment and management by developing a set of practical guidelines for their peers. Their collaboration presents a framework to improve the diagnosis and management of DR to support improved patient outcomes and allow primary eye care providers to confidently care for the growing population of patients with diabetes.
BACKED BY SCIENCE
Validated by 200+ Peer-Reviewed Research Studies
Since its launch in 2015, more than 3,000 devices have been installed worldwide in optometry, ophthalmology, retina specialty, and research settings. LKC Technologies has been an industry leader in functional assessments for more than 45 years, and the RETeval is backed by science – giving you peace of mind that you’re making the right choice for your patients.
ERG & VEP Coding and Reimbursement Guides
In the United States, there are more than 560 ICD-10-CM codes that may be associated with the CPT codes used to report electroretinography and visual-evoked potential. The following guides, developed by The Pinnacle Health Group, provide some of the more common diagnosis codes that may be used for protocols associated with the RETeval handheld device.

How It Works
-
The RETeval device starts flashing light into the patient’s eye.
-
The retina responds to the flashes by generating small electrical signals that travel through the facial structure to the Sensor Strip.
-
The Sensor Strip detects the electrical signals and compares the results to the age-adjusted reference database.
