  • Title: Binocular vision: its influence on the development of visual and postural reflex eye movements.
    Author: Westall CA.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Physiol Opt; 1986; 6(2):139-43. PubMed ID: 3489215.
    Abstract:
    The time course for the development of binocular vision is similar to the time course for the development of mature, symmetrical, monocular optokinetic nystagmus in response to movements of the visual field in the nasalward or temporalward direction. If binocular vision does not develop normally, then the monocular optokinetic response remains immature, or asymmetric. This paper examines the connection between the development of symmetrical OKN and binocular vision, and relates how disturbances in visual development affect the ability of postural reflex eye movements to adapt to changes in the visual environment.
