Abstract
A contact-lens technique was used to record eye movements made by two subjects instructed either to "fixate" stationary white-light targets or to "hold" their eyes in position in the presence of the same targets. A marked reduction in saccade rate, frequently reaching zero throughout 9.8-second trials, was observed under the "hold" instruction.Keywords
