Oculomotor impairment after 1 night of total sleep deprivation : a dissociation between measures of speed and accuracy

The present study examined the effects of 40 h of sleep deprivation and of time-of-day on saccadic and smooth pursuit oculomotor performance. Nine normal subjects slept for 3 consecutive nights in the laboratory (one adaptation, one baseline, one recovery). Baseline and recovery were separated by a...
