The Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex (VOR) is a reflex that stabilizes visual images on the retina during head movement. When the head turns, the eyes automatically move in the opposite direction to maintain a stable view of the world.
Function
- •Enables clear vision during movement
- •Foundation for visual navigation
- •Contributes to the feeling of stability within flow
- •Involves vestibular system, brainstem, and eye muscles
In ONDA Life
Part 2 trains VOR as part of "stabilizing gaze while the head is in motion." This is the foundation for visual navigation and the feeling of stability within the flow — essential for moving through space with confidence.
