An investigation in use of videocassette techniques for enhancement of saccadic eye movements.

An investigation exploring the potential for the therapeutic application of videocassette techniques in vision therapy was undertaken. It was shown that a saccadic therapy program could be designed and produced with reasonable ease and simplicity. Clinical trials revealed the video method of saccadic therapy to be as effective as a standard method of therapy as to a significant change in saccadic ability. For validation of the research method, a control group was given pre- and post-testing; no significant change was found.
