摘要：Objective: Most neurological diseases are usually accompanied by changes in the oculomotor nerve. Analysis of different types of eye movements will help provide important information in ophthalmology, neurology, and psychology. At present, many scholars use optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) to study the physiological phenomenon of eye movement. OKN is an involuntary eye movement induced by a large moving surrounding visual field. It consists of a slow pursuing eye movement, called “slow phase” (SP), and a fast re-fixating saccade eye movement, called “fast phase” (FP). Non-invasive video-oculography has been used increasingly in eye movement research. However, research-grade eye trackers are often expensive and less accessible to most researchers. Using a low-cost eye tracker to quantitatively measure OKN eye movement will facilitate the general application of eye movement research. Methods & Results: We design an analytical algorithm to quantitatively measure OKN eye movements on a low-cost eye tracker. Using simple conditional filtering, accurate FP positions can be obtained quickly. The high-precision FP recognition rate is of great help for the subsequent calculation of eye movement analysis parameters, such as mean slow phase velocity (MSPV), which is beneficial as a reference index for patients with strabismus and other eye diseases. Conclusions: Experimental results indicate that the proposed method achieves faster and better results than other approaches, and can provide an effective algorithm to calculate and analyze the FP position of OKN waveforms.
