Ocular diagnostics using electrooculography: Recent trends, challenges, and future directions

November 17, 2025 by Anirban Dasgupta

his article reviews the recent literature on the use of electrooculography (EOG) signals in diagnosing several ocular disorders. Since ocular disorders are becoming very common these days, it is essential to understand the role of EOG as a noninvasive technique to diagnose such conditions. This article introduces the principles of EOG signal acquisition, its typical characteristics, and the various paradigms of signal recording. The signal conditioning of EOG is discussed with respect to the latest techniques for removing noise and baseline drift. The use of the recent deep learning architectures for classifying EOG signals is discussed. The three major ocular conditions diagnosed with EOG are retinal, oculomotor, and vestibular dysfunctions. This article explores the manifestations of each condition in the EOG signal. This article further discusses subcategories of these conditions, such as the diagnosis of strabismus, nerve palsies, and vertigo-related disorders. A comparative analysis of EOG with other diagnostic methods, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and electroretinography (ERG), is provided. The review finally concludes by indicating the existing challenges.

Characteristics of social robots: A framework for development

Social robots hold great promise for assisting both older adults with dementia and those in good health. Yet, little is known about how people want to interact with these robots. This article introduces a framework for the key features social robots should have, based on insights from a four-month study of how seniors engage with robots through conversation and interaction. We have broken these features down into principles of robot behavior, verbal communication, and nonverbal communication, while also considering factors that affect a person’s likelihood to adopt such technology. Our findings offer a starting point for refining social robots and & developing features that truly resonate with users.
