Pronunciation varies by accent · noun
(medicine) Torsional movement of the eye (rotational movement that does not shift the centre of the pupil)..
In measuring eye position, for instance, both Fick and Wundt had adopted procedures which did not treat the co-ordinate frame of the primary position as fundamental. Rather, they related cyclorotations to the visual plane—which is variable—instead of to the horizontal in the primary position.
The images of horizontal lines in the upper visual field acquire a gradient of cyclorotation with one sign, and those in the lower visual field acquire a gradient of cyclorotation with the opposite sign, as shown in Figure 7.8b.
Also shown are the coefficients of the residual wavefronts assuming a partial correction of the original wavefront due to a cyclorotation of the eye. To estimate how much error may induce due to the cyclorotation of the eye, the residual RMS wavefront error as well as the residual high-order RMS wavefront error for each of the rotation angles is shown.
Use cyclorotation when its meaning, tone and grammar fit the full sentence. A synonym is not always a direct replacement.
Cyclorotation means (medicine) Torsional movement of the eye (rotational movement that does not shift the centre of the pupil)..
The closest synonym depends on the sentence and intended sense.
The opposite depends on the specific sense.
