Visual-Vestibular Interactions. I. Influence of Peripheral Vision on Suppression of the Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex and Visual Acuity.

摘要

Visual performance and visual suppression of the VOR were markedly different, depending upon the relative direction of peripheral background movement. Visual suppression of the VOR and visual performance were disrupted to a far greater extent when vestibular inputs and peripheral optokinetic inputs were discordant than when they were concordant. Results have potential implications for head-up displays and suggest a procedure for evaluating visual/vestibular function. (Author)
