Findings in a previous study have shown that the retina of newborn rats exposed to hyperoxia during the first days of life sustain permanent functional (as determined with the rod ERG) and structural (as determined with histology) damage that appears to be determined by the level of retinal maturity reached at the time of oxygen exposure-the retinas of rat pups being more susceptible to hyperoxic shock during the second week of life than during the first week. Given that the cone ERG has been shown to mature later than the rod ERG, the purpose of the present study was to examine whether cone responses also demonstrates a similar maturational susceptibility to postnatal hyperoxia. Also examined was whether the oscillatory potentials (OPs) were affected by postnatal hyperoxia.
