The courts require that a foundation be laid for admission of the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus Test into evidence. Some courts will not accept peace officers as experts, but will instead require that an optometrist provide the necessary foundation. The optometrist will be expected to establish the correlation between nystagmus and alcohol consumption, and to educate the court on the desirability of the test for use by the law enforcement community. The optometrist should prepare prior to trial to assist the prosecutor in achieving these goals.
法院要求为将水平凝视眼震试验作为证据予以采纳奠定基础。一些法院不接受执法人员作为专家，而是要求验光师提供必要的基础。预计验光师要确立眼震与饮酒之间的关联，并向法庭说明执法部门使用该测试的可取之处。验光师应在庭审前做好准备，以协助检察官实现这些目标。
