Monocular deprivation boosts long-term visual plasticity
for the deprived eye in the early and middle periods of the training stage for all subjects, performance levels were similar between the eyes in the late period (Figure B). Significant differences were observed in the early (paired t-test, P = 0.0 5) and middle (P = 0.00 ) periods, but no significant difference in the late period (P = 0.380) (Figure C). These results suggest that MD selectively...
متن کاملImpairment in holistic face processing following early visual deprivation.
Unlike most objects, faces are processed holistically: They are processed as a whole rather than as a collection of independent features. We examined the role of early visual experience in the development of this type of processing of faces by using the composite-face task, a measure of holistic processing, to test patients deprived of visual experience during infancy. Visually normal control s...
متن کاملProject PRAKASH: Development of Object Perception Following Long-term Visual Deprivation
Understanding how the human visual system learns to perceive objects in the environment is one of the fundamental challenges in neuroscience, and is also the motivation behind a new humanitarian and scientific initiative that we have launched, called ‘Project Prakash’. This project involves a systematic study of the development of object perception skills in children following recovery from con...
متن کاملInfant face preferences after binocular visual deprivation
Early visual deprivation impairs some, but not all, aspects of face perception. We investigated the possible developmental roots of later abnormalities by using a face detection task to test infants treated for bilateral congenital cataract within 1 hour of their first focused visual input. The seven patients were between 5 and 12 weeks old (n 1⁄4 3) or older than 12 weeks (n 1⁄4 4). Like newbo...
متن کاملAdult visual experience promotes recovery of primary visual cortex from long-term monocular deprivation.
Prolonged visual deprivation from early childhood to maturity is believed to cause permanent visual impairment. However, there have been case reports of substantial improvement of binocular vision in human adults following lifelong visual impairment or deprivation. These observations, together with recent findings of adult ocular dominance plasticity in rodents, led us to re-examine whether adu...
