Description:
Vestibulo-ocular Reflex. Connections between the vestibular system and the cranial nerves controlling eye movement keep the eyes centered on a visual stimulus, even though the head is moving. During head movement, the eye muscles move the eyes in the opposite direction as the head movement, keeping the visual stimulus centered in the field of view. English labels. From OpenStax book 'Anatomy and Physiology', fig. 14.21.
