It contains four sections. The first section, Basic Concepts of Stable Vision and Gaze, deals with psychophysical aspects of infantile forms of nystagmus and the relative contributions of extraocular proprioception and efference (corollary discharge). It also contains an accessible review of current notions of spatial and temporal visual functions and spatial constancy in infantile nystagmus syndrome and latent nNystagmusCongressesPediatric ophthalmologyCongressesInfantsDiseasesCongressesVision in infantsCongressesNystagmusPediatric ophthalmologyInfantsDiseasesVision in infants618.92/0977Leigh R.
