Brain stem and cortical contributions to the generation of horizontal optokinetic eye movements in humans

Abstract

We evaluated the subcortical pathways' contribution to human adults' horizontal OKN by using a method similar to that used previously with cats (Harris & Smith, 1990; Smith & Harris, 1991). Five normal adults viewed plaids composed of two drifting sinusoidal gratings arranged such that their individual directions of drift were 60 deg or more from the direction of coherent motion of the overall pattern. Physiological evidence indicates that …
