Abstract
The effect of amblyopia on several sensory and perceptual functions has been widely studied. However, relatively fewer studies have evaluated the influence of amblyopia on visuomotor aspects. This concise but comprehensive collection of materials is to show how saccadic eye movements are severely affected by amblyopia and therefore spatiotemporal coordination between the visual and motor systems is distorted. The author hopes that recognition of these saccade deficits in amblyopia can help all eye professionals and neurologists to consider validated clinical tests related to saccadic eye movements in patients with amblyopia as these tests are not presently performed in routine clinical eye examinations.
