Donders' law

Donders' law states that for a given direction of gaze, the eye's position has a unique orientation regardless of how the eye reached that position. In other words, when you look at an object in a specific direction, your eye always adopts the same shape and angle, no matter whether you moved it directly or through intermediate positions. This reflects how the brain and eye muscles coordinate to maintain consistent eye positions, ensuring smooth and efficient eye movements across different directions. It highlights the predictable relationship between eye movement and gaze direction.
