Abstract: A real-time program is described which, with the aid of some

simple external circuitry, can be used as an automated clinical system for

measuring a patient's electrooculogram (EOG) during periods of light

and dark adaptation. Such clinical electrooculography is an aid in testing

retinal function, but has previously been a time consuming task. A LAB

8/e computer with the standard A/D converter and Schmitt trigger

interfaces and a minimum of 4K of memory are all that is necessary for

proper operation. Reference should be made to an article, "Computer

Automated Electrooculography," which appeared in Computers and

Biomedical Research, Volume 5, pp. 654-658, 1972.
