Istradefylline Improves Impaired Smooth Pursuit Eye Movements in Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
Introduction Patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) exhibit alterations in eye movement control, primarily diverse oculomotor deficits which include hypometric saccade and impaired smooth pursuit with reduced pursuit-gain necessitating catch-up saccades.

Spatial localization during open-loop smooth pursuit [PDF]
IntroductionNumerous previous studies have shown that eye movements induce errors in the localization of briefly flashed stimuli. Remarkably, the error pattern is indicative of the underlying eye movement and the exact experimental condition.

Changes in saccadic eye movement and smooth pursuit gain in patients with acquired comitant esotropia after strabismus surgery [PDF]
This study investigates the change in horizontal saccadic eye movement and smooth pursuit in patients with acquired comitant esotropia (ACE), before and after strabismus surgery.

Smooth-pursuit performance during eye-typing from memory indicates mental fatigue [PDF]
Mental fatigue is known to occur as a result of activities related to e.g. transportation, health-care and military operations. Gaze tracking has wide-ranging applications, with the technology becoming more compact and processing power reducing.

Cancellation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex during smooth pursuit in patients with maculopathy [PDF]
IntroductionMacular degeneration is associated with loss of central vision, including the fovea. Central visual field loss is associated with impaired smooth pursuit eye movements, and the associated scotoma can lead to target disappearance which may or ...

Anticipation of physical causality guides eye movements [PDF]
Causality is a unique feature of human perception. We present here a behavioral investigation of the influence of physical causality during visual pursuit of object collisions.

Smooth pursuit and memory saccades are impaired in early-stage Parkinson’s disease patients [PDF]
IntroductionParkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease caused by degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc). One of the most prevalent symptoms is eye movement impairment, presenting in 75% of PD

Binocular coordination during smooth pursuit in dyslexia: a multiple case study [PDF]
Smooth pursuit (SP) was explored in dyslexics and non-dyslexics. Dyslexic children show similar gain of SP, and number and amplitude of catch-up saccades (CUS) as non-dyslexic children.

Interference between smooth pursuit and color working memory [PDF]
Spatial working memory (WM) and spatial attention are closely related, but the relationship between non-spatial WM and spatial attention still remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the interaction between color WM and smooth pursuit eye
