Journal ArticleDOI
The role of fixational eye movements in visual perception
TL;DR: Current studies of fixational eye movements have focused on determining how visible perception is encoded by neurons in various visual areas of the brain to elucidate how the brain makes the authors' environment visible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Saccades and microsaccades during visual fixation, exploration, and search: foundations for a common saccadic generator.
Jorge Otero-Millan,Xoana G. Troncoso,Stephen L. Macknik,Ignacio Serrano-Pedraza,Susana Martinez-Conde +4 more
TL;DR: The results show that microsaccades are produced during the fixation periods that occur during visual exploration and visual search, and support the hypothesis of a common oculomotor generator for saccades and micros Accades.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of microsaccades on vision: towards a unified theory of saccadic function
TL;DR: This research shows that fixational eye movements thwart neural adaptation to unchanging stimuli and thus prevent and reverse perceptual fading during fixation, leading us towards a unified theory of saccadic and microsaccadic function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microsaccades Counteract Visual Fading during Fixation
TL;DR: The authors found that before a fading period, the probability, rate, and magnitude of microsaccades decreased and before transitions toward visibility, the probabilities, rates, and magnitudes increased.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microsaccades: a neurophysiological analysis
TL;DR: The latest neurophysiological findings concerning microsaccades are reviewed and their relationships to perception and cognition are discussed and the most promising lines of enquiry are identified.
