    This study introduces an interactive program for nystagmus analysis. Its specialized subroutine effectively quantifies response rhythm and regularity, aiding in distinguishing normal from pathological eye movements.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology and Neuroscience
    • Vestibular System Function
    • Ocular Motor Control

    Background:

    • Nystagmus analysis is crucial for diagnosing vestibular and neurological disorders.
    • Quantifying the rhythm and regularity of nystagmus responses remains a challenge.
    • Existing methods may lack the precision needed for accurate differentiation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present an interactive software program for nystagmus analysis.
    • To introduce a novel subroutine for quantifying response characteristics.
    • To evaluate the program's effectiveness in discriminating between normal and pathological nystagmus.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of an interactive analysis program for nystagmus.
    • Implementation of a subroutine to generate histograms of intersaccadic interval durations.

  • Calculation of histograms for successive fast component amplitudes.
  • Processing of postrotational nystagmus responses.

    • Main Results:

    • The developed program provides quantitative analysis of nystagmus.
    • Histograms of intersaccadic interval ratios and fast component amplitude ratios were generated.
    • These quantitative measures proved highly significant in differentiating normal from pathological responses.
    • The subroutine effectively quantifies the rhythm and regularity of nystagmus.

    Conclusions:

    • The interactive nystagmus analysis program offers a valuable tool for clinical assessment.
    • Quantitative analysis of response rhythm and regularity is key to accurate nystagmus classification.
    • This method shows promise for improved diagnosis of conditions affecting the vestibular system.
