Saccadicc eye movement is controlled by:
Ans: d. Frontal coexNormally saccadic movements are voluntary but can be aroused by peripheral visual or auditory stimuli by stimulation of frontal eye fields(area 8).Thus these movements are programmed in the frontal coex.The bilateral frontal eye fields in this pa of the coex are concerned with the control of saccades, and an area just anterior to these fields is concerned with vergence and the near response.
