Interocular Transfer: The Dichoptic Flash-Lag Effect in Controls and Amblyopes
TL;DR: Observations confirm that trajectory extrapolation mechanisms transfer between the eyes of normal observers, however, such transfer may be impaired in amblyopia.
Book ChapterDOI
Single Cells to Cellular Networks
TL;DR: This work reviews recent experiments that shed light on how the outputs of cells in the early stages of cortical processing are combined to extract elementary contours and examines the regional specialization of these network operations, their site in the visual pathway, and their possible neural code.

The endogenous modulation of visual plasticity in human adults
TL;DR: The authors modulated the neural oscillations that determine the internal neural state to demonstrate that endogenous factors play a critical role in not only baseline contrast sensitivity but also the extent to which the adult visual system can undergo neuroplastic change in binocular balance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accommodative accuracy in strabismic amblyopia
TL;DR: The results indicate that there is no accommodative component to these previously reported results and an alternate interpretation is put forward to account for previous reports of accommodative abnormality in strabismic amblyopia.

Ocular Dominance Plasticity: Measurement Reliability and Variability
Seung Hyun Min,Ling Gong,Alex S. Baldwin,Alexandre Reynaud,Zhifen He,Jiawei Zhou,Robert F. Hess +6 more
TL;DR: This study assesses the test-retest reliability of the three most commonly used tasks (binocular rivalry, binocular combination, and dichoptic masking) and the repeatability of the shift in eye dominance after short-term monocular deprivation for each of the task and recommends a measurement method to better understand its physiological basis and the underpinning of visual disorders.
