Fixation reflex
text:
The fixation reflex is that concerned with attracting the eye on a peripheral object. For example, when a light shines in the periphery, the eyes shift gaze on it. It is controlled by the occipital lobe of the cerebral cortex, corroborated by three main tests:
- Removal of cortex causes shutdown of this reflex
- Drawing a figure on the cortex surface will cause eye movements in the direction traveled
- Detecting an image by recording the actual signals from the eyes Older research declares
