“…We found no clear dependence on age for either the Alc-EOG or Li-EOG, consistent with previous data from Arden [10] and the others for the Li-EOG [29,[36][37]. Furthermore, the majority of our subjects showed good inter-ocular consistency for both the Alc-EOG ratio and the Arden ratio.…”

The alcohol-induced electro-oculographic (EOG) response has been proposed by Arden as an indicator of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) integrity. We have evaluated the consistency of the alcohol-EOG with respect to clinical applicability and compared this response to the ISCEV-standard EOG. We recorded, in a group of normal subjects (n=29, 14 men with mean age 42+/-11 years and 15 women with mean age 36+/-13 years), the alcohol response to a single oral dose of ethanol at 160 mg/kg (as 40 proof vodka, drunk in 15 s after 12 h of fasting), followed by an ISCEV-standard EOG 90 min after alcohol administration. Blood alcohol levels were monitored at regular intervals with a breath analyzer. We found a wide range of amplitudes in both light and alcohol responses among participants, from minimal to large values. Subjects had a wide range of blood alcohol concentrations from 0.02 to 0.10%; near the time of the response peak, but there was no relationship between alcohol levels and peak/baseline ratios. In addition, there was no relationship between alcohol peak/baseline ratio and the Arden ratio. Neither the alcohol nor the light response parameters showed any relationship with age or gender. Some of the inter-individual variability in the EOG response to alcohol may reflect variable absorption of oral alcohol. The alcohol-induced EOG has too broad a range of responses to be useful clinically for the one-time evaluation of individual patients. We have similar concerns regarding clinical applications of the standard light-induced EOG.

“…Galilot and E. Hansen pigments which is of importance in the EOG recording. A supernormal response to the EOG in albinos was stated by Reeser et al (1970). However, Gouras & Gunkel (1963) found a normal EOG ratio which is consistent with the finding in our series.…”

“…[ 19771 definitely applied lower adaptive lev els than we did, whereas those used by GeijerMannerfelt and Ballin [1968] and Reeser et al [1970], who measure their values not in luminance of the screen but in illumination at the corneal plane, were probably lower too. Higher values than ours, therefore, are likely to be attributed to another factor, probably to a high preadaptation level, for which often the normal adaptation field is applied.…”

The EOG was determined in 130 normal subjects. The mean value was 2.42, the interindividual standard deviation 0.42. The difference between the right eye and the left eye was not significant, neither was the difference between a group of youngsters (20–30 years) and an older age group (50–55 years). In another group of 48 normal subjects, 10 or more EOGs were determined per individual. The intraindividual standard deviation was not a fixed number, but appeared to be dependent on the height of the EOG, being approximately 10% of the EOG value. This is a confirmation of one of our previous observations.
