Receptive field properties of horizontal cells in the tiger salamander retina: contributions of rods and cones.

abstract：:Eye position was recorded in different viewing conditions to assess whether the temporal and spatial characteristics of saccadic eye movements in different individuals are idiosyncratic. Our aim was to determine the degree to which oculomotor control is based on endogenous factors. A total of 15 naive subjects viewed ...
