Directional control of Eye movement in reading: The return sweep

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

The study is concerned with the distribution of directional control of eye movement in reading. With the paralysis of the right eye, progressive movements of the left eye were possible, but regressive movements were cancelled being observed as drift. Base-out prism placed over the nonparalyzed eye allowed for the re-establishment of regressive movements. The results were explained on the basis of a large retinal error marker having been established. With paralysis of one eye, base-out prisms can reduce that error.
