Microsaccades mediate perceptual alternations in Monet’s “Impression, sunrise”
Scientific Reports, 2021 Troxler fading, the perceptual disappearance of stationary images upon sustained fixation, is common for objects with equivalent luminance to that of the background.

Toward a model of microsaccade generation: The case of microsaccadic inhibition
Journal of Vision, 2008 Microsaccades are one component of the small eye movements that constitute fixation. Their implementation in the oculomotor system is unknown. To better understand the physiological and mechanistic processes underlying microsaccade generation, we studied microsaccadic inhibition, a transient drop of microsaccade rate, in response to irrelevant visual ...

Microsaccade dynamics during covert attention
Vision Research, 2005 We compared effects of covert spatial-attention shifts induced with exogenous or endogenous cues on microsaccade rate and direction. Separate and dissociated effects were obtained in rate and direction measures. Display changes caused microsaccade rate inhibition, followed by sustained rate enhancement.

Microsaccadic modulation evoked by emotional events [PDF]
Journal of Physiological Anthropology, 2020 AbstractSaccadic eye movements can allude to emotional states and visual attention. Recent studies have shown that microsaccadic responses (i.e., small fixational eye movements) reflect advanced brain activity during attentional and cognitive tasks.

What determines the direction of microsaccades? [PDF]
, 2010 During visual fixation, our eyes are not entirely still. Instead, small eye movements, such as microsaccades, can be observed. We here investigate what determines the direction and frequency of these microsaccades, as this information might help to ...

, 2023 ABSTRACTBrain circuitry that controls where we look also contributes to attentional focusing of visual contents outside of current fixation or contents held within the spatial layout of working memory. A behavioural manifestation of the contribution of oculomotor brain circuitry to selective attention comes from modulations in microsaccade direction ...

Journal of Sensory Studies, Volume 41, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT This review synthesizes recent research on the physiological blind spot as a model for studying the interplay between attention, perception, and conscious visual experience. Scanning studies from 1996 to 2025, the review focuses on eye‐tracking methodologies, predictive coding, clinical translation, and individual variability.

An Electroencephalographic Investigation of the Impact of Eye Movements in a Memory Probe Task
Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Lateral saccades represent a major source of noise and confounds, particularly for event‐related potentials (ERPs) that rely on hemispheric imbalances in neural activity elicited by lateralized stimuli during central fixation. These include lateralized ERPs such as the contralateral delay activity (CDA), which indexes visual working memory ...

Monocular microsaccades are visual-task related [PDF]
, 2016 During visual fixation, we constantly move our eyes. These microscopic eye movements are composed of tremor, drift, and microsaccades. Early studies concluded that microsaccades, like larger saccades, are binocular and conjugate, as expected from Hering ...

Microsaccade rate varies with subjective visibility during motion-induced blindness. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Motion-induced blindness (MIB) occurs when a dot embedded in a motion field subjectively vanishes. Here we report the first psychophysical data concerning effects of microsaccade/eyeblink rate upon perceptual switches during MIB. We find that the rate of
