Eye-tracking has long been used to assess usability for the public web. Recently, it is used to assess user behavior with electronic health records (EHRs). We conducted a scoping review of studies involving eye-tracking for usability of EHRs to determine the current state. Three main themes emerged: studies of usual use of systems, development of new methods, and studies of new features. Detailed user behaviors revealed by eye-tracking can contribute valuable information to redesign efforts.
