Vision research: Losing sight of eye dominance
نویسنده
چکیده
Most people prefer to use their right eye for viewing. New evidence reveals that this dominance is much more plastic than that for one hand or foot: it changes from one eye to the other depending on angle of gaze. Remarkably, sighting dominance depends on the hand being directed towards the visual target.

متن کاملIntralenticular Cilia Following Penetrating Ocular Trauma: A Case Report
Penetrating ocular trauma is one of the most important causes of vision loss, especially in men, and can be associated with intraocular foreign bodies. The incidence of intraocular cilia after trauma is very low. Here we report the case of a 24-year-old man who visited Poostchi Ophthalmology Clinic (Shiraz, Iran) due to a gradual vision loss in his left eye over the past 2 months. The probable ...
متن کاملHigh Tracking Experimental Performances by Approaching Hand/Eye-Vergence Visual Servoing
Abstract—In this paper, we focus on how to control the robot’s end-effector to track an object, meanwhile, to approach it with a desired posture for grasping, which we named as “Approaching Visual Servoing (AVS).” AVS with binocular cameras needs inheritably eye-vergence motion to keep cameras’ sight against the target since approaching motion makes the cameras sight narrow or losing the object...
متن کاملRelative image size, not eye position, determines eye dominance switches
A recent paper examined eye dominance with the eyes in forward and eccentric gaze [Vision Res. 41 (2001) 1743]. When observers were looking to the left, the left eye tended to dominate and when they were looking to the right, the right eye tended to dominate. The authors attributed the switch in eye dominance to extra-retinal signals associated with horizontal eye position. However, when one lo...
متن کاملLatent/manifest latent nystagmus reversal using an ocular prosthesis. Implications for vision and ocular dominance.
Latent/manifest latent nystagmus (LMLN) is a jerk nystagmus with a decreasing-velocity or linear slow phase whose fast phase is in the direction of the fixating eye. Change of the fixating eye by alternating tropias or cover will cause reversal of the LMLN to preserve this relationship. In the dark, where no fixation is possible, the fast phases of LMLN are in the direction of the intended fixa...
