Donnell J. Creel, Ph.D. is Director of Electrophysiology Service at the John A. Moran Eye Center. The Electrophysiology Service performs examinations including visually evoked potentials, full-field electroretinograms, auditory brainstem responses, electro-oculograms, multifocal electroretinograms and multifocal visually evoked potentials. These tests quantitate retinal, optic pathway, visual cortical and brainstem auditory pathway function. The examinations are performed in clinic at Moran Eye Center, operating theaters at Moran Eye Center and Primary Children's Medical Center, bedside for non-ambulatory patients, and in conjunction with MRI scanning.
