Preferred term

eye movements: effects of neurological and mental disorders on  

Definition

  • Eye movement recordings provide powerful information about the decisions that a person's brain has made about whether something is important. Eye fixations cause the image of an object to fall on the fovea, the cone-rich high-acuity area of the retina, and so provide visual information at a high spatial resolution.
