On the role of extraretinal signals for saccade generation.
We investigated the accuracy of sequential saccadic eye movements, executed without visual feed-back. We found evidence that the final error of one saccade is corrected during the next, which supports the existence of extraretinal inputs to the saccadic generator. The corrections, however, were incomplete, which suggests that extraretinal signals are only partially effective.
