Abstract

The electrooculogram (EOG) assesses the function and health of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and also the interaction between the RPE and photoreceptors. This is done by noting the changes in the corneo-retinal standing potential (the difference between the retina and electropositive cornea) during the dark-adapted and light-adapted states.

Keywords: Electrooculography.
