The clinical electro-oculogram (EOG) is an electrophysiological test of the outer retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) in which changes electrical potential across RPE are recorded during successive periods dark light adaptation. This document presents 2017 EOG Standard from International Society for Clinical Electrophysiology Vision (ISCEV: www.iscev.org ). standard has been reorganized updated to include explanation mechanism EOG, but without substantive testing protocol previous version published 2011. It describes methods recording applications gives detailed guidance on technical requirements, practical issues reporting results with main measure (the Arden ratio) now termed peak:dark trough ratio. intended promote consistent quality within between centers.
