  • MS participants generated greater numbers of saccades (P = 0.007). (elsevierpure.com)
  • Researchers from Tübingen show for the first time that the milliseconds- long blindness that occurs during rapid movements of the eyes, which allows flicker-free vision, comes from the retina. (bernstein-network.de)
  • Saccade is the term used to describe rapid movements of the eyes. (bernstein-network.de)
  • Intriguingly, the time course of saccade-related activity in CIP aligned with the temporally integrated V3A output. (elifesciences.org)
  • Since the lateral rectus controls movement away from the center of the body, a lesion in the abducens nucleus disrupts the pathways controlling outward movements, not allowing the right eye to move right and the left eye to move left. (wikipedia.org)
  • The primary deviation is misalignment, with the normal eye fixating. (medscape.com)
  • If the paretic eye fixates, the ensuing secondary deviation is typically larger than the primary deviation. (medscape.com)
