Smooth pursuit and saccades are two components of tracking eye movements. Their
coordination has usually been studied by investigating latencies of pursuit onset in response …

Aim There is a controversy as to whether dyslexic children present visuo-motor disabilities
such as vergence and accommodative problems assessed with orthoptic tests. The purpose …

The goal of this study was to explore the latency of eye movements both in direction and in
depth in dyslexic children. Sixteen dyslexic (mean age: 11.12±1.08 years) and 14 non …

The control of eye movements depends in part on subcortical motor centres. Gaze is often
directed towards salient visual stimuli of our environment with no conscious voluntary …

In real life we produce vertical saccades at different distances and eccentricities, and while
our fixation is more or less actively engaged. The goal of this study is to examine vertical …

It is known that vergence allows the brain to perceive depth. Although convergence (inward
turning of the eyes) and divergence (outward turning of the eyes) movements utilize the …

Disparity vergence is commonly viewed as being controlled by at least two mechanisms, an
open-loop vergence-specific burst mechanism analogous to the ballistic drive of saccades …

Purpose: This study sought to quantify divergence eye movements and differences between
divergence and convergence to smoothly moving ramp, step, and disappearing step stimuli …

The present study examined horizontal saccades in healthy subjects: 9 adults (20–32 years)
and 10 aged subjects (63–83 years), under gap (fixation target extinguishes prior to target …

This study explores whether vergence eye movements along the median plane can be
triggered with short latencies, and the role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in …
