Amblyopic stereo vision is efficient but noisy
2023, Vision ResearchTwo cortical deficits underlie amblyopia: A multifocal fMRI analysis
2019, NeuroImageCitation Excerpt :It is also accepted that the deficit in amblyopia must extend beyond V1 (Barnes et al., 2001; Kiorpes et al., 1998; Kiorpes and McKee, 1999) and also involve more than just contrast coding (Gingras et al., 2005a; Hess and Field, 1994; Tao et al., 2014) because, behaviorally, there are a host of visual sensitivities affected in addition to contrast (Aaen-Stockdale et al., 2007; Bedell and Flom, 1981; Levi and Klein, 1982; Mansouri et al., 2005; Sharma et al., 2000; Simmers et al., 2003). Prime amongst these is a deficit involving global spatial distortions (Hess et al., 1978; Sireteanu et al., 1993) and anomalous coding of local position (Bedell and Flom, 1981; Levi et al., 1985). This has now been demonstrated using a host of different approaches (Bedell and Flom, 1983; Bedell et al., 1985; Hess et al., 1978; Hess and Holliday, 1992; Levi and Klein, 1983; Levi et al., 1985; Mansouri et al., 2009; Sireteanu et al., 1993) and shown to be separate from the contrast coding abnormality (Hess and Field, 1994; Hess and Holliday, 1992) prompting a redefinition of the condition in terms of Tarachopia (distorted sight) rather than Amblyopia (blunt sight) (Hess, 1982).
Differential effects of high-frequency transcranial random noise stimulation (hf-tRNS) on contrast sensitivity and visual acuity when combined with a short perceptual training in adults with amblyopia
2018, NeuropsychologiaCitation Excerpt :The most common aetiologies of amblyopia are untreated strabismus, which consists of a misalignment of the eyes, anisometropia, which is an unequal refractive error between the two eyes, or both strabismus and anisometropia (Giaschi et al., 2015). Spatial vision abnormalities in amblyopia include reductions in visual acuity (VA), contrast sensitivity function (CSF) (Hess and Howell, 1977), and Vernier acuity as well as spatial distortion (Sireteanu et al., 1993), abnormal spatial interactions (Polat et al., 1997), impaired contour detection (Kovács et al., 2000), deficiencies in stereopsis (Wallace et al., 2011), and more generally, global processing of form and motion (Aaen-Stockdale and Hess, 2008; Constantinescu et al., 2005; Ho et al., 2005; Husk et al., 2012; Simmers et al., 2003, 2005, 2006; Simmers and Bex, 2004). Despite some early indications that the retina may be the primary site of amblyopia (Hess, 2001), the current unanimous opinion is that the primary site of neural loss in amblyopia is found at the level of the primary visual cortex (V1) and it is due to an atypical pattern of functional connectivity among neurones selective for orientation and spatial frequency (Polat, 1999; Polat et al., 1997).
Occlusion therapy improves phase-alignment of the cortical response in amblyopia
2015, Vision ResearchCitation Excerpt :For each of these disorders a suboptimal retinal image in one eye, interocular disparity of visual inputs, or both limit the postnatal visual development of one eye resulting in decreased visual acuity. Additional visual deficits include reduced contrast sensitivity, reduced Vernier acuity, temporal instability, motion, and global motion deficits, and abnormal contour interactions (Altmann & Singer, 1986; Giaschi, Regan, Kraft, & Hong, 1992; Hess & Holliday, 1992; Ho et al., 2005; Levi & Klein, 1983; Levi & Klein, 1985; Simmers, Ledgeway, Hess, & McGraw, 2003; Sireteanu, Lagreze, & Constantinescu, 1993). Treatment for amblyopia includes detection and correction of the underlying ocular disorder.
