A survey of electro-oculography.
The vestibulometric examination in the ORL office is done by means of the registration of eye movements of vestibular origin, the electro-nystagmography. With the ENG-equipment one can perform electro-oculography, examining eye movements in general. EOG is quite helpful in neurologic diagnosis and important in ORL practice too. The adjustment of the ENG-equipment to EOG is explained, after some words on the physiology and the clinical examination of ocular motor function. Than a short survey is given of the abnormalities that may be met in EOG.
