Conjugate eye movement refers to motor coordination of the eyes that allows for bilateral fixation on a single object. A conjugate eye movement is a movement of both eyes in the same direction to maintain binocular gaze (also referred to as “yoked” eye movement).
Key Points. A conjugate gaze palsy is inability to move both eyes together in a single horizontal (most commonly) or vertical direction. Gaze palsies most commonly affect horizontal gaze; some affect upward gaze, and fewer affect downward gaze. The underlying disorder is treated.
Conjugate gaze is the ability of the eyes to work together or in unison. It refers to the motion of both eyes in the same direction at the same time. The eyes can look laterally (left/right), upward, or downward.
Conjugate gaze palsies are neurological disorders affecting the ability to move both eyes in the same direction. These palsies can affect gaze in a horizontal, upward, or downward direction. [1] These entities overlap with ophthalmoparesis and ophthalmoplegia.
The four major types of conjugate eye movements include saccades, pursuit, the vestibulo-ocular reflex, and optokinetic nystagmus (Table 16–1). 1 Because saccadic and pursuit abnormalities constitute the majority of the voluntary conjugate gaze abnormalities, they will be emphasized in this chapter, and their anatomy and physiology will be ...
Conjugate gaze palsy refers to the condition where there is an inability to move the eyes together in one horizontal or vertical direction. It is primarily characterized by the inability to move the eyes horizontally, although upward and downward gaze can also be affected to a lesser extent.
Definition. Conjugate gaze is the movement of both eyes in the same vertical or horizontal direction. Integrated supranuclear impulses produce conjugate gaze. These impulses deal with the overall function of the ocular system, not with the movement of individual extraocular muscles.
