Cerebral Functional Response during Eyelid Opening/Closing with Bell's Phenomenon and Volitional Vertical Eye Movements in Humans.
TLDR
Investigation of the brain regions relevant to Bell's phenomenon and volitional eye movement using [15O] H2O and positron emission tomography revealed a relative increase in rCBF in the frontal eye field, and activation in the FEF mainly occurs during volitionalEye movement.
Corneo-retinal-dipole and eyelid-related eye artifacts can be corrected offline and online in electroencephalographic and magnetoencephalographic signals
Electrooculogram and submandibular montage to distinguish different eye, eyelid, and tongue movements in electroencephalographic studies
Assessing the effects of voluntary and involuntary eyeblinks in independent components of electroencephalogram
The influence of eyeball rotation on the results of auditory steady-state responses.
TLDR
Rolling the eyes to the side does not improve the detection of response, as the observed increase in noise amplitude is much higher than the increase in the amplitude of the electrophysiological response.
Validating and improving the correction of ocular artifacts in electro-encephalography
TLDR
In this thesis, modeling of EEG and artifact is used to validate correction methods based on simulated data and it is concluded that using a camera during EEG recordings provides valuable extra information that can be used in the process of ocular artifact correction.
Automatic Removal of Eye-Movement and Blink Artifacts from EEG Signals
TLDR
A robust method to automatically eliminate eye-movement and eye-blink artifacts from EEG signals with little distortion of the underlying brain signals is presented.
EEG and Eye-Tracking Integration for Ocular Artefact Correction
TLDR
This paper proposes a novel technique to remove eye-related artefacts from the EEG recordings by performing simultaneous eye tracking with any EEG recording to enable simple, but targeted, automatic artefact removal that preserves more of the original signal.
Supervised EEG Ocular Artefact Correction Through Eye-Tracking
TLDR
This paper coupled Eye Tracking with EEG allowing us to independently measure when ocular artefact events occur through the eye tracker and thus clean them up in a targeted “supervised” manner instead of using a “blind” artefact clean up correction technique.
Validation of ICA as a tool to remove eye movement artifacts from EEG/ERP.
TLDR
By selecting only eye movement epochs for ICA compilation, this work was able to facilitate the identification of components representing eye movement artifacts and performed as well as the Gratton and Coles method.

Human eye movements associated with blinks and prolonged eyelid closure.
TLDR
It is concluded that elevation of the eye ball (Bell's phenomenon) does not occur during short blinks and only in about half of the subjects during voluntary unrestrained prolonged lid closure, and the possibility that the transient eye movements during blinks are caused primarily by a mechanical interaction between the lids and the eye is supported.
Upper eyelid movements measured with a search coil during blinks and vertical saccades.
TLDR
In general, lid movements were faster than those reported previously in the literature, but there was considerable intersubject variability, which suggests caution when using normative data to interpret abnormal lid motion for clinical purposes.
Eyelid movements. Mechanisms and normal data.
TLDR
The authors found that the basic eyelid movements, blinks, and saccadic lid movements, can be uniquely and reliably characterized by their amplitude-maximum velocity relationships.

Dynamic properties of horizontal and vertical eye movements in parkinsonian syndromes
TLDR
In parkinsonian syndromes apart from PSP, the saccade‐generating brainstem burst neurons are probably spared, but the signals that they receive, specifying the size and direction of saccades, are flawed, and measurements of the gain and trajectory of oblique saccading, and initiation of smooth pursuit, may aid in diagnosing these different types of parkinsonism.

Epileptic monocular nystagmus.
TLDR
A case of epileptic monocular nystagmus in a cognitively intact adult with normal vision is described, and it is hypothesized that the seizure discharge either activated a cortical saccade region and caused simultaneous supranuclear inhibition of ipsilateral eye movement or triggered monocular eye movement commands.
