Is this really a good idea? HEOG and VEOG are associated with bipolar
EOG recordings in many labs. I'm afraid that users might accidentally
add location information to bipolar channels.
I usually recommend to use LO1/LO2 and IO1/SO1 (or IO2/SO2; latero-,
infra-, and supra-orbital) labels for monopolar EOG recording. Parity of
the labels gives additional information on hemisphere.
LO1, LO2, IO1, SO1, IO2 and SO2 BESA locations are included in the BESA
file kindly provided by Robert Oostenveld in his Blog Archive:
