Abolition of optokinetic nystagmus in the cat
Science (New York, N.Y.)
|October 3, 1980
Abstract:
Combining a behavioral and a surgical manipulation, namely complete visual deprivation with surgical section of the optic chiasm, results in the abolition of optokinetic nystagmus in the cat. This basic optomotor reflex remains relatively unaffected by either of these manipulations performed singly.
