Uncontrolled eye movements in children may signal nystagmus, a rare vision disorder where early diagnosis can protect ...

Working with week-old zebrafish larva, researchers decoded how the connections formed by a network of neurons in the brainstem guide the fishes' gaze. The study found that a simplified artificial ...

An ancient brain circuit, which enables the eyes to reflexively rotate up as the body tilts down, tunes itself early in life as an animal develops, a new study finds. Led by researchers at NYU ...

Using piezoelectricity, an engineering team developed wearable sensors to examine eye movement to assess brain disorders or damage to the brain. A University of Houston engineering team has developed ...

Abnormalities in horizontal eye movements detected with video oculography (VOG) may support the early diagnosis of atypical forms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), according to a French study that adds to ...

Some teenagers with autism use a different set of eye-movement patterns from their non-autistic counterparts while recognizing faces, according to James McPartland, Ph.D., Harris Professor in the Yale ...

Eye twitching, medically termed myokymia, is a frequent condition experienced by many people. While it is usually harmless, caused by stress, fatigue, lack of sleep, or excessive caffeine, persistent ...

Zebrafish, photographed with confocal microscope. The brain region that controls eye movement is structurally similar in fish and mammals, but the zebrafish system contains only 500 neurons, making it ...
