The Science of Eye Movements

Eye Movement Abnormalities Across the Lifespan

Abnormal eye movements can serve as biomarkers for various neurological conditions, disease, and pathology. From early development when our attention matures, to early and later adulthood when we may experience injuries, to early aging when the first signs of disease may become apparent. Tracking eye movements provides high fidelity insight into cognition, that cannot be replicated by direct observation. Capturing these eye movements can provide the indication of the specific condition, mark the progression of disease, or signify the resolution of injury.
