Vergence of the eyes in the dark depends on the vertical direction of gaze. In three experiments this phenomenon was studied using eye inclinations and head tilts of 5 min duration during which monocular or binocular near and distant stimuli were inspected. The effects of eye inclination and head tilt on dark vergence were temporally stable; they exhibited even a tendency to increase with the passage of time. On return to horizontal gaze, positive aftereffects were found, that is dark vergence was biased towards its value with a vertically deviated gaze. The effect of vertical gaze direction turned out to be additive to the effect of binocular near fixation. These findings represent evidence against the hypothesis that the effect of vertical gaze direction on dark vergence is mediated by a feedforward signal that is related to voluntary effort in raising or depressing the eyes.
