The authors investigated the role of visuo-spatial attention in an antisaccade task using event-related potentials (ERPs) in schizophrenia patients compared to healthy controls. ERPs between 80-130 ms (P100) after stimulus onset showed differences between pro- and antisaccades only for controls and can be related to the suppression of irrelevant stimulus features. Between 150-180 ms (N100), a larger amplitude for anti-compared to prosaccades over centroparietal electrodes showed that processes of visuo-spatial attention seem to be engaged in performance of the antisaccade task. Left temporo-occipitally, this activity was only evident in schizophrenia patients, possibly reflecting additional neuronal recruitment in order to perform the antisaccade task successfully.

Background: Oculomotor abnormalities are common in multiple sclerosis (MS) but are not quantitatively evaluated in clinical practice. Oculometric measures (OMs) are characteristics of eye movements captured while performing a visual task, e.g.

Background: Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, and eye movement abnormalities are a significant symptom of its diagnosis. In this paper, we developed a multi-task driven by eye movement in a virtual reality (VR) environment to elicit PD-specific eye movement abnormalities. The abnormal features were subsequently modeled by using the proposed deep learning algorithm to achieve an auxiliary diagnosis of PD.

The analysis of eye movements is a noninvasive, reliable and fast method to detect and quantify brain (dys)function. Here, we investigated the performance of two novel eye-trackers-the Thomas Oculus Motus-research mobile (TOM-rm) and the TOM-research stationary (TOM-rs)-and compared them with the performance of a well-established video-based eye-tracker, i.e.

Oculomotor behaviour changes in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) are a promising source of prodromal disease markers. Capitalizing on this phenomenon to facilitate early diagnosis requires oculomotor assessment in prodromal cohorts. We examined oculomotor behaviour in non-manifesting LRRK2 G2019S mutation carriers (LRRK2-NM), who have heightened PD risk.

Unexpected sounds have been shown to trigger a global and transient inhibition of motor responses. Recent evidence suggests that eye movements may also be inhibited in a similar way, but it is not clear how quickly unexpected sounds can affect eye-movement responses. Additionally, little is known about whether they affect only voluntary saccades or also reflexive saccades.
