Abstract:
PURPOSE:To determine the response of retinal vessels to differing durations of flicker light (FL) stimulation. METHODS:We recorded retinal arterial and venous vessel dilation to 12.5 Hz FL provocation of varying duration (5, 7, 10, and 20 seconds) in 12 healthy young individuals (age range, 26-45 years). All participants underwent a full ocular examination including IOP and blood pressure measurements. RESULTS:Maximum dilation (MD) did not show a significant dependence on flicker duration in arteries, whereas maximum constriction (MC) did. In veins, however, MD significantly increased with flicker duration. Approximately 80% to 90% of MD in arteries is reached within 10 seconds of FL stimulation. CONCLUSIONS:The vast majority of arterial dilatory capacity is reached within 10 seconds of FL stimulation even though venous dilation continues strongly. Since MC of arteries shows a significant dependence on flicker duration, measurements at two different durations can provide more information about the retinal vascular system than at a single flicker duration alone.
