Visually Evoked Response or Evoked Potential...

Visually Evoked Response or Evoked Potential - VER

How the test is performed:

• The patient has three electrodes placed on their head. Once prepared for the test, they sit in a recliner and view a checker board pattern move side to side with only one eye open while the other eye is patched. Each eye takes approximately three minutes to complete. After both eyes have completed the test, the computer data is prepared and printed for review.

• The patient typically feels no pain, with only very mild discomfort while the electrodes are positioned and later removed.
