Eye Tracking Assessment
involuntary eye movements – typically not apparent to the naked eye – indicate visual performance and health concerns. By measuring and analyzing these otherwise imperceptible patterns, doctors can identify and offer treatment to correct a host of vision and health issues as well as increase visual performance. Remember: Vision is not the same as eyesight. A person with 20/20 eye site may exhibit weak eye movement behaviors.
Eye movements can reveal how well the brain is working. But the classic “follow the finger” test is limited by, well, the finger. This subjective evaluation is imprecise for even the most skilled practitioners. There has never been a high-precision measurement tool for eye tracking.
