The linear vestibulo-ocular reflex (LVOR) to surge (fore-aft) translation has complex kinematics varying with target eccentricity and distance. To determine normal responses and aging changes, 9 younger [age, 28 +/- 2 (SE) yr] and 11 older subjects (age, 69 +/- 2 yr) underwent 0.5 g whole body surge transients while wearing binocular scleral search coils. Linear chair position and head acceleration were measured with a potentiometer and accelerometer. Subjects viewed centered and 10 degrees horizontally and vertically eccentric targets 50, 25, or 15 cm distant before unpredictable onset of randomly directed surge in darkness (LVOR) and light (V-LVOR). Response directions were kinematically appropriate to eccentricity in all subjects, but there were significantly more measurable LVOR and V-LVOR responses (63-79%) in younger than older subjects (38-44%, P &lt; 0.01). Minimal LVOR latency averaged 48 +/- 4 ms for younger and significantly longer at 70 +/- 6 ms for older subjects. In the interval 200-300 ms after surge onset, horizontal LVOR gain (relative to ideal velocity) of younger subjects averaged over all target distances was 0.55 +/- 0.04 and was significantly reduced in older subjects to 0.33 +/- 0.04. Horizontal V-LVOR gain was 0.58 +/- 0.04 in younger and significantly lower at 0.35 +/- 0.06 in older subjects. Vertical gains did not differ significantly between groups. Target visibility had no effect in either group during the initial 200 ms. The LVOR and V-LVOR were augmented by saccades in younger more than older subjects. Aging thus decreases LVOR velocity gain, response rate, and saccade augmentation, but prolongs latency.
