Spatial and temporal limits of motion perception across variations in speed, eccentricity, and low vision.

abstract：:Saccadic adaptation is an oculomotor learning process that maintains the accuracy of eye movements to ensure effective perception of the environment. Although saccadic adaptation is commonly considered an automatic and low-level motor calibration in the cerebellum, we recently found that strength of adaptation is infl...
