    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neuroscience
    • Medical Instrumentation

    Context:

    • Clinical electrophysiology requires specialized equipment for accurate diagnosis.
    • Existing ERG-EOG systems can be expensive and complex.
    • There is a need for affordable and reliable diagnostic tools in routine clinical settings.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the design and construction of a novel ERG-EOG apparatus.
    • To create an instrument suitable for clinical routine and accessible at a reasonable cost.
    • To detail the components and functionality of the ERG-EOG system.

    Summary:

    • The apparatus features a ganzfeld stimulator (Ulbricht sphere) with a six-filter bank, a flash lamp, and EOG stimulus lamps.
    • Binocular responses are recorded, and the system utilizes high-quality, commercially available industrial electronics.
    • The ERG can be recorded with patients in either a sitting or supine position.

    Impact:

    • Enables more widespread access to essential electrophysiological diagnostic tools.
    • Facilitates cost-effective and routine clinical assessment of retinal and ocular function.
    • Provides a practical solution for ophthalmologists and neurophysiologists.
