Original Source: Task specific fixation behaviour in macular disease.
Purpose: People with central scotomas frequently use a preferred retinal locus (PRL) in place of the damaged fovea in order to fixate a target. Here we use a novel statistical technique to determine whether the retinal locus used for fixating a point target is the same as that used for reading words. Methods: Nine subjects with established macular disease and bilateral central scotomas were recruited. The retinal area used for fixating a point target and words of text was measured using a microperimeter (MP...

Object tracking in motion-blind flies
In response to the movement of its visual world, Drosophila is capable of optomotor response in head and body turning, as well as a visual fixation response. This study shows that blocking the visual...

Relationship between fixation stability measured with MP-1 and reading performance.
BACKGROUND: People with visual impairment have reduced reading performance, which is thought to be related to unstable or eccentric fixation. New microperimeters such as the MP-1 offer straightforward...
