Figure 6.
Vertical eye traces from subject 1. This subject exhibits an upbeating vertical nystagmus with amplitude of about 5 arc minutes and frequency of about 1 beat per second. Two of the five individuals we imaged in the development of this instrument have a small vertical nystagmus, and neither knew it was there until eye tracking revealed it. In our experience around 1 of 10 individuals shows this pattern without noticeable visual consequence. The difference trace (green) shows very little of the nystagmus, indicating that it is almost completely conjugate. Each vertical saccade shows a distinct overshoot that is itself about 4 arc minutes. These are most likely due to image shifts caused by crystalline lens wobble associated with the saccades (He, et al. 2010).
