Description |
Gaze refers to the direction of observation, the position of the eyes in space. It is the sum of eye position in the orbit and head position in space. Since changes in gaze position are achieved by saccades, smooth pursuit, vestibule-ocular reflex motion and by head movements, gaze palsies refer to palsies of saccades, smooth pursuit and vestibule-ocular reflex (VOR) function, individually or in concert. Each of these ocular motor systems yield their operations to systematic clinical examination. |
