> Saccades are commonly as low as 20-30ms when reading text

What sort of resolution are one's eyes actually resolving during saccades? I seem to recall that there is at the very least a frequency reduction mechanism in play during saccades

During a saccade you are blind. Your brain receives no optical input. The problem is measuring/predicting where the eye will aim next and getting a sharp enough image in place over there by the time the movement ends and the saccade stabilizes.
