Course Description
This 8-hour course explores the anatomy, physiology, and clinical significance of visual fixation and saccadic intrusions. Participants will learn to assess normal and abnormal eye movements, understand their neurological underpinnings, and apply diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for patients with gaze instability and visual fixation disorders. Designed for all skill levels, this course emphasizes practical implementation and includes case reviews and evidence-based tools for treatment.
What you’ll learn:
- Explain the neurophysiology of visual fixation and saccadic control mechanisms.
- Differentiate between normal and pathological eye movements (e.g., microsaccades, square wave jerks, ocular flutter).
- Identify the brain regions involved in visual fixation abnormalities.
- Apply clinical strategies to assess and treat fixation-related oculomotor dysfunction
