Description |
The function of the ocular motor system is to acquire and maintain target fixation. This necessitates proper functioning of higher cortical centers responsible for choosing appropriate targets and generating commands, intact pathways descending from cortical regions, properly functioning brain stem nuclear and internuclear structures, and intact motoneurons to overcome the mechanics of the ocular plant. |
