Impact of aging on long-term ocular reflex adaptation
Neurobiology of Aging, 2013 Compensatory eye movements (CEMs) stabilize the field of view enabling visual sharpness despite self-induced motion or environmental perturbations. The vestibulocerebellum makes it possible to adapt these reflex behaviors to perform optimally under novel circumstances that are sustained over time. Because of this and the fact that the eye is relatively

The Art of Managing Various Ocular Defects in Different Clinical Scenarios: A Case Series
Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2023 The absence of eye and irradiation post-enucleation may result in problems like dryness of the eye sockets, itching and crusting. This may lead to poor prosthesis adaptation and a lack of patient acceptance of the prosthesis.
