[Differential photo-oculography of vertical and oblique movements].
Up to now EOG has been the only method used to record ocular movements in daily practice. However such a mean has various drawbacks and limits. It has two main gaps: firstly for vertical movements because the interference discharges related with palpebral movements and blinkings; on the other hand for oblique movements because the unequal transmission of EOG potential towards the orbital rim. The differential photo-oculography perfected by Charlier et Buquet has been fitted and now can be easily used in clinical conditions. With this optical method, it exists a direct relation between the gaze direction and video signals of the eye. The authors point out the reliability of its results not only for horizontal movements, but also for vertical and oblique movements. This method allows a relevant analysis of all kinetic parameters whatever the moving axis may be.
