Study of congenital nystagmus: optokinetic nystagmus.
A severe defect of optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) was found in 46 patients with congenital nystagmus. Abnormal patterns of OKN, such as superimposition of pendular oscillations on the optokinetic slow component and inversion of OKN, were observed. Optokinetic gain (eye movement velocity/drum velocity) was decreased compared to that in normal subjects, and optokinetic after-nystagmus, or transient ...
متن کاملScotopic Optokinetic Nystagmus Thresholds
Although it is now well established that a variety of ocular and systemic diseases, including diabetes, are harmful to the SWS cone pathway, causing a decrease in SW sensitivity,"the site(s) of the loss is not well known. The loss in SW sensitivity in diabetes has been variously attributed to changes in the lens, loss of SWS cone receptors due to their greater vulnerability to insult, the reduc...
متن کاملHuman optokinetic nystagmus and spatial frequency.
Optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) is a fundamental oculomotor response to retinal slip generated during natural movement through the environment. The timing and amplitude of the compensatory slow phases (SPs) alternating with saccadic quick phases (QPs) are remarkably variable, producing a characteristic irregular sawtooth waveform. We have previously found three stochastic processes that underlie OK...
متن کاملVertical optokinetic nystagmus and optokinetic afternystagmus in humans.
Vertical optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) and optokinetic afternystagmus (OKAN) were recorded in 6 normal subjects using the magnetic scleral search coil technique in order to reevaluate the up-down symmetry of these responses. The effects of body position relative to gravity were investigated by comparing OKN and OKAN elicited with the subjects in an erect and in a lateral side position. No consist...
متن کاملHuman optokinetic nystagmus: a stochastic analysis.
Optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) is a fundamental gaze-stabilizing response found in almost all vertebrates, in which eye movements attempt to compensate for the optic flow caused by self-motion. It is an alternating sequence of slow compensatory eye movements made in the direction of stimulus motion and fast eye movements made predominantly in the opposite direction. The timing and amplitude of the...
