Adaptation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex in amblyopia.
Adaptation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is demonstrated by changes in gain in response to discrepancies between visual and vestibular stimulation. The authors have investigated the effect of monocular asymmetries of OKN in amblyopia upon adapting the gain of the VOR. Adaptation was investigated by modifying the horizontal balance of the VOR. While monocularly fixating a head referenced ...
متن کاملThe vestibulo-ocular reflex of hypergravity rats.
The vertebrate vestibular system detects linear (otolith organs) and angular (semicircular canals) acceleration. The function of the otolith system is twofold, 1: perception of linear acceleration of the head, and 2: assessment of the spatial orientation of the head relative to the vector of gravity. Because of the latter function, a change of gravity will affect the vestibular input which, in ...
متن کاملCerebellar learning in the vestibulo-ocular reflex.
The vestibulo-ocular reflex, because of its close relationship with the cerebellum and its marked adaptiveness, has become a model system for studying the functions of the cerebellum. It has been hypothesized that an evolutionarily old part of the cerebellum, the flocculus, forms a modifiable accessory pathway for the vestibulo-ocular reflex arc for adaptive control, and that the modification i...
متن کاملThe vestibulo-ocular reflex and seasickness susceptibility.
VOR parameters were compared in subjects at the extremes of the seasickness susceptibility scale. Thirty-nine subjects highly susceptible to seasickness and 30 nonsusceptible subjects participated in the study. The VOR was evaluated by the Sinusoidal Harmonic Acceleration (SHA) test at frequencies of 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, and 0.16 Hz. In subjects susceptible to seasickness, VOR gain was signi...
متن کاملBiologically Plausible Local Learning Rules for the Adaptation of the Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex
The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is a compensatory eye movement that stabilizes images on the retina during head turns. Its magnitude, or gain, can be modified by visual experience during head movements. Possible learning mechanisms for this adaptation have been explored in a model of the oculomotor system based on anatomical and physiological constraints. The local correlational learning rule...
