Is input from the brain required for all eye movements?

Here’s an interesting study about the relationship between the brain and the eyes. Scientists are learning new things about this which are important, according to the article, “because every time a surgeon manipulates the muscles around the eye it might interfere with these abilities.”

About Lois (admin)

I've lived with strabismus over half a century. Also called crossed eyes, lazy eye, turned eye, squint, double vision, wall eyes, floating, wandering, wayward, or drifting eyes, approximately 1 in every 25 to 50 people suffers from this condition. Strabismus not only affects vision. Many suffer social embarassment, lost job opportunities, and a host of other problems. Yet, living with eyes apart forces us to adapt, meet the challenge, and become stronger.
