Concept information
Preferred term
visual processing: subcortical mechanisms for gaze control
Definition
- For perception to be useful, one needs to actively orient sensory receptors toward the most relevant stimuli in the outside world. In the case of the visual system, the eyes must be oriented so that light reflected from the visual scene falls on photoreceptors within the retina at the back of the eye.
