Book The Eye  The Physiology of Human Perception

Download or read book The Eye The Physiology of Human Perception written by Britannica Educational Publishing and published by Britannica Educational Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human eye has been the subject of endless fascination. Indeed, the very nature of sensory perception is shaped by the visual cues the brain receives, thus rendering the eye one of the most crucial elements in our comprehension of the world. The structures and functions of the eye are examined in this exhaustive volume that describes how we are able to process what we observe and react accordingly. Detailed diagrams accompany the text and encourage the reader to consider all aspects of this beautiful and complex area of human anatomy.

Book Otolith Contribution to Ocular Torsion and Spatial Orientation During Acceleration

Download or read book Otolith Contribution to Ocular Torsion and Spatial Orientation During Acceleration written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans perceive linear acceleration and tilt by the otoliths as a result of shear forces on the maculae. A paradigm was set up to study the influence of forces from different directions on the otoliths, on eye movements and tilt perception. On the Coriolis Acceleration Platform of the Naval Aerospace Medical Research Laboratory (NAMRL), five adult male subjects were oscillated in the lateral direction (Y-axis, subject either sitting 'upright' or 'supine') and in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis, subject 'supine' or on his right side). A fifth condition, in which the subject was oriented 'upright' facing the direction of oscillation (X-axis), served as a control condition. In separate sessions, the same subjects were also rotated in these five orientations. Data were obtained by measuring ocular torsion with video-oculography, and the direction of the subjective vertical was recorded by means of a joystick. The sinusoidal oscillations were at 0.22, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 Hz, with maximum amplitude of 0.5 g. Rotations were at 17 feet from center at 57 deg/S, which resulted in a centripetal force of 0.5 G on the head. Ocular torsion appeared in all four main conditions (acceleration in Y and Z), but with a significant difference in amplitude. No torsion was found in the control condition (acceleration in X), as was expected. The subjects experienced tilt under centrifugation, and indicated a so-called 'hilltop illusion' during oscillation. The experience of tilt and ocular torsion were most prominent at the lower oscillation frequencies.

Book Ocular Motor and Vestibular Function in Neurometabolic  Neurogenetic  and Neurodegenerative Disorders

Download or read book Ocular Motor and Vestibular Function in Neurometabolic Neurogenetic and Neurodegenerative Disorders written by Aasef G. Shaikh and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-08-29 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eye movements provide rich source of information about brain functioning for neurologists and neuroscientists. They provide diagnostic clues, define, and localize motor and cognitive disorders. Objective eye movement assessments associated with clinical observation and genetic testing in neurodegenerative, neurometabolic, and neurogenetic diseases provide insight into their pathophysiology and disease mechanism. Finally the eye movements may be used for testing and following the response to therapies. The concrete value of studying eye movement stems from a number of advantages compared to the study of movements of axial or limb muscles. The eye movements are accessible to clinical inspection, they can be measured precisely, their interpretation is clear and therefore ocular motility examination has high localization value. There are several standardized tasks to study of each subclass of eye movements that are recognized for motor or cognitive behavior. Indeed the studies of eye movement had allowed test of motor and cognitive functions of the brain in a vast range of neurological disease. Both cortical and subcortical dysfunctions may be detected with the analysis of subclasses of eye movements and interpreted in association with other clinical, laboratory and neuroimaging features. The goal of this topic-focused volume of Frontiers in Neurology is to gather seminal studies, from well-known scientists and laboratories from across the world, delineating the features of eye movements and vestibular system in neurogenetic, neurometabolic, and neurodegenerative disorders. Such collection of articles, to our knowledge, is unique and never done in the past. The topics and the compilation will be of interest to broad groups of neuroscientists and neurologists for the reasons as follows: 1) Neurodegenerative diseases represent a large portion of neurological diseases encountered in neurological clinical practice. Eye movement changes may occur early in their course and may be specific, thus orienting the diagnosis. 2) Neurometabolic and neurogenetic conditions, although rare, show specific and characteristic eye movements that represent the hallmark of the disease. Such disorders often represent a pathologic model that helps to understand the normal functioning of specific brain regions and networks.
