Electrooculogram

/ɪˌlɛktrəˈɑkjələˌɡræm/ noun

Definition

A recording of electrical signals produced by eye movements, used in medical testing to measure how well the retina functions.

Etymology

From 'electro-' (electricity) combined with 'oculo-' (from Latin oculus, eye) and '-gram' (from Greek gramma, writing/record). The technique was developed in the mid-20th century for ophthalmological research and diagnosis.

Kelly Says

Your eyes naturally generate tiny electrical potentials as they move—by placing electrodes around your eye, doctors can literally 'read' what your eyes are doing even in complete darkness, making this test useful for detecting retinal diseases.
