A graphic recorder used for detecting the electrical potential caused by eye movements. This recorder includes an electrode for each eye and one on the forehead (multichannel recording) for measuring the potential from both eyes simultaneously, or repositioning of the electrodes before each test for single channel recording. Electronystagmographs are used for detecting multiple sclerosis, vestibular dysfunctions, the presence of drugs and other specific disorders characterized by involuntary eye movement (nystagmus).
