Effects of dopaminergic drugs (L-dopa plus benserazide, or nomifensine) on human visual function have been tested in healthy volunteers by measuring the psychophysical contrast sensitivity for sinusoidal gratings of various spatial frequencies. After drug administration the contrast sensitivity improved in all subjects over a limited range of medium to high spatial frequencies.
