Show ANATOMIC AND PHYSIOLOGIC BASIS OF GAZE STABILITY HORIZONTAL GAZE PHYSIOLOGIC BASIS • When we look in eccentric gaze, either horizontally or vertically, the forces from tissues in the orbits pull our eyes back to midline • We must be able to maintain our eye position in eccentric gaze, or our eyes will drift back to midline • If there is dysfunction, there will be gaze evoked nystagmus (GEN) © Ariel Winnick and Meagan Seay, DO Anatomy Neural integrator system allows stability in eccentric gaze • Nucleus Prepositus Hypoglossi • Medial Vestibular Nucleus • Cerebellar Flocculus ------------------------------------------ • GEN is present even at 75% excursion vs. physiologic nystagmus which is only in extreme gaze • Rebound nystagmus often seen with GEN VERTICAL GAZE Anatomy • Interstitial Nucleus of Cajal midbrain • Cerebellar Flocculus |
