In a collaborative project with the Huxlin Lab at the University of Rochester, we can study the eye movement characteristics in individuals with cortical blindness due to V1 lesions from stroke.

The human visual system is guided by the visual experience throughout development. Fixational eye movements play an important role in seeing with high acuity vision. Can these movements also influence eye elongation & myopia?

To measure fixational eye movements, including microsaccades and ocular drift, high precision eye tracking is required. In the AP Lab, we utilize methods that allow us to capture this small eye motion during different paradigms, both head fixed and head free.
