Description This study assessed visual fixation as a novel indicator of neurologic dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Fixation, which relies on interactions between widely distributed visual sensory, motor, and attention centers, may become disturbed in MS or TBI. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) devices that utilize scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO)-based eye tracking offer an accessible means for obtaining highly accurate visual fixation data.
