Five Common Ocular Motor Signs in Cerebellar Disorders - Saccadic Hypermetria, Saccadic Pursuit & VOR Suppression, Gaze-evoked & Rebound Nystagmus | (1) Saccadic hypermetria - an overshoot of the visual target (2) Saccadic smooth pursuit - due to impaired pursuit and low gain, saccades are needed to keep up with the visual target. This gives it a ‘choppy' appearance. (3) Saccadic vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) suppression - another... | Abnormal Saccades; Abnormal Pursuit; Abnormal Vestibulo-ocular Reflex (VOR) Suppression; Jerk Nystagmus; Gaze-evoked Nystagmus; Rebound Nystagmus; Cerebellar Oms |
