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.
Practical Implementation of ERG into a Comprehensive Practice
Chris Wolfe & EyeCode Education
With this course by Chris Wolfe, OD, FAAO, Dip. ABO, available from Practice Performance Partners, you’ll know exactly when and how to use ERG to improve patient care and protect your practice. We’re giving away coupon codes so you can take the course for FREE!
“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.”

“The RETeval fits in nicely with the other technology we have. When you look at wide-field photography, when you look at OCT, those give you the structural side of what’s going on with a patient – then you add something that looks at function, like the RETeval. It’s just like putting a puzzle together.”

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.

ERG Raises Red Flag, Changing Management Trajectory
A complaint of difficulty driving at night is not uncommon for ODs to hear, but when one patient mentioned this during his routine exam, his 20/20 VA prompted Dr. Frances Bynum to look further.
Implementing ERG in Clinical Practice
Tune in to Dr. Chris Wolfe’s podcast episode to hear how Drs. Bobby “Chip” Wood and Nate Lighthizer are changing patient care with their RETeval – a patient-friendly, doctor-friendly, staff-friendly solution for objective functional assessments.
Routine Electroretinography Use Supports Patient Management
After his patient with MS discontinued care with her neurologist, Dr. Bradley Grant used his RETeval to determine the appropriate follow-up schedule while leveraging the easy-to-interpret reports for crucial patient education.
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.
