An electronystagmography (ENG) test — also known as electrooculography — uses electrodes attached above and below your eye to record eye movement.
An ENG test neurology check is actually a group of tests that may include:
Optokinetic test that measures how well you can track a light moving without moving your head
Positional test, during which you’re asked to move your head or body quickly while eye movement is being recorded
Gaze nystagmus test, which tests how well your eyes can fix on an object without moving involuntarily
There are other types of ENG tests as well, and most aren’t uncomfortable at all. Your doctor, experienced in using the electronystagmography test for diagnostic testing chooses which of the tests you need to determine your diagnosis.
