Saccadic adaptation is a fundamental process by which the oculomotor system recalibrates the rapid, ballistic movements of the eyes to ensure accurate fixation on targets. This adaptive capability is ...

Cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") in red. Source: Wikimedia/Life Sciences Database Neuroscientists at the University of Rochester have masterminded a rapid eye movement test that can detect ...

When compared with fixation, both smooth pursuit (upper left) and saccadic (lower left) eye movements showed similar patterns of brain activation (red) and deactivation (blue). In contrast, a direct ...

Illustration of the induction (1) and appearance (2) of an afterimage, as well as its movement across eye movements (3) in egocentric visual space (top row). Note that despite the perception of ...

New research led by scientists at CU Boulder suggests that eyes may really be the window to the soul—or, at least, how humans dart their eyes may reveal valuable information about how they make ...

Learn what afterimages can teach us about how our brains predict our visual movements. If you’ve ever been caught off guard by bright lights coming around a corner, or the sun suddenly hitting your ...
