“…There is accumulating evidence that the analysis of the timing, rate, and direction of microsaccades provide information about the neural mechanisms underlying vision and certain higher-order cognitive behaviors. For example, microsaccades, which modulate neural activity in visual areas (Martinez-Conde et al, 2000Snodderly et al, 2001;Herrington et al, 2009;Hafed and Krauzlis, 2010;Hass and Horwitz, 2011), have also been shown to be correlated with visual awareness and visuospatial attention (Hafed and Clark, 2002;Engbert and Kliegl, 2003;Laubrock et al, 2005;Betta and Turatto, 2006;Engbert, 2006;Otero-Millan et al, 2008;Cui et al, 2009;Herrington et al, 2009;Kliegl et al, 2009;Pastukhov and Braun, 2010). Given that the temporal dynamics of each eye can differ throughout a given microsaccade, our results suggest that the knowledge of the motion of both eyes could improve the correlation observed between microsaccades and neural activity (or behavior).…”
