Abstract

Highlights
•During walking, PD make more task-irrelevant fixations compared to controls.

•With visual cues, fixation locations were similar between PD and controls.

•When crossing a salient obstacle, PD made more task-relevant fixations than controls.

•Poorer visual acuity was associated with fewer fixations during walking in PD only.

•Improving the saliency of relevant stimuli may be a useful, cost-effective home-based modification for PD.
