Pursuit eye movements. Methodological aspects.
A reduced smooth pursuit ability is often a sign of central vestibular pathology. Methodological aspects of stimulation, recording of eye movements and analysis of results in the evaluation of the smooth pursuit function are discussed. A method for evaluation of the smooth pursuit function over a broad frequency range is presented and the effects of target predictability and age on recorded parameters are shown.
