PROCEDURE
1. Instructions to patient: “When I say ‘red,’ look at the red sticker, and when I say ‘green,’ look at the green sticker. Remember, don’t look until I tell you.”
2. The examiner begins calling out “red” and “green” and repeats this so that the patient has to make 10 sac-cades (five to the red target and five to the green target).
3. The examiner observes the saccadic eye movements and rates the performance in four categories: head movement, body movement, ability, and accuracy (Table 1.10).
IMPORTANT POINTS
1. Do not make any statement in the instructions about head or body movement.
2. Have the patient stand during the procedure.
3. Keep the targets a maximum of 10 cm from the midline of the patient.
