[HTML][HTML] Stereopsis and amblyopia: A mini-review
DM Levi, DC Knill, D Bavelier - Vision research, 2015 - Elsevier
Amblyopia is a neuro-developmental disorder of the visual cortex that arises from abnormal
visual experience early in life. Amblyopia is clinically important because it is a major cause …

[HTML][HTML] Imaging retinotopic maps in the human brain
BA Wandell, J Winawer - Vision research, 2011 - Elsevier
A quarter-century ago visual neuroscientists had little information about the number and
organization of retinotopic maps in human visual cortex. The advent of functional magnetic …

Lynx1, a cholinergic brake, limits plasticity in adult visual cortex
Experience-dependent brain plasticity typically declines after an early critical period during
which circuits are established. Loss of plasticity with closure of the critical period limits …

The relationship between anisometropia and amblyopia
This review aims to disentangle cause and effect in the relationship between anisometropia
and amblyopia. Specifically, we examine the literature for evidence to support different …

New concepts concerning the neural mechanisms of amblyopia and their clinical implications
AMF Wong - Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012 - Elsevier
Amblyopia is a visual impairment secondary to abnormal visual experience (eg, strabismus,
anisometropia, form deprivation) during early childhood that cannot be corrected …

[HTML][HTML] Subcortical amygdala pathways enable rapid face processing
Human faces may signal relevant information and are therefore analysed rapidly and
effectively by the brain. However, the precise mechanisms and pathways involved in rapid …

qCSF in clinical application: efficient characterization and classification of contrast sensitivity functions in amblyopia
Purpose.: The qCSF method is a novel procedure for rapid measurement of spatial contrast
sensitivity functions (CSFs). It combines Bayesian adaptive inference with a trial-to-trial …

Deficient binocular combination reveals mechanisms of anisometropic amblyopia: signal attenuation and interocular inhibition
Amblyopia is a developmental disorder that results in deficits of monocular and binocular
vision. It is presently unclear whether these deficits result from attenuation of signals in the …

Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation transiently improves contrast sensitivity and normalizes visual cortex activation in individuals with amblyopia
Background. Amblyopia is a neurodevelopmental disorder of vision that is associated with
abnormal patterns of neural inhibition within the visual cortex. This disorder is often …
