Explanation

Gaze testing is a simple medical examination used to check the health of a person's eyes and brain. During the test, the person is asked to follow an object with their eyes while keeping their head still. This allows doctors to see how well the eyes can move and if they are working together properly. Any unusual eye movements can indicate problems with the nerves or muscles controlling the eyes, or issues in the brain.
