Abstract
Electro-oculograms were recorded from fifty normal subjects between fifteen and thirty years of age, 25 males and 25 females. Refractive error distributions were the same in both sex groups. Average EOG ratio for the male subjects was 2.28, for the females 2.49; this difference was statistically significant. Twenty subjects were retested on another day to establish limits on the intersession variability of the tests. 95% of the eyes retested were found to have an intersession variability of less than 0.6.
