The oscillatory potentials (OPs) are probably generated in the proximal retina. The OPs of 20 visually inattentive infants and children were recorded. All 20 had evidence of abnormalities of the visual parts of the brain. The a- and b-waves, indices of distal retinal function, were normal in 10 patients, abnormal in the other 10. Among the patients with abnormal, attenuated a- and b-waves, OP amplitudes were more attenuated than among those with normal a- and b-waves. However, the timing of the OP wavelets was not correlated with distal retinal activity. These results suggest that in humans OP amplitude may be determined by inputs from the distal retina, but OP latency and periodicity are governed by processes within the proximal retina.
