Monocular vision is intrinsically unstable: a side-effect of binocular homeostasis

摘要: It is now accepted that short-term deprivation of one eye in adults results not only a post-deprivation strengthening the vision previously deprived (Lunghi et al., 2011; Zhou 2013) but also deterioration non-patched (Zhou 2013). Such monocular 1-2 hours induces changes last approximately 30-90 minutes. There some support for this neuroplastic effect being consequence change contrast gain within binocular circuity 2011;Zhou al, 2013; see Binda 2018). What known when these are initiated. One possibility they initiated once patch removed, would explain why duration has so little (Min The other result slow build up from moment first applied. If latter true, be under conditions expected to unstable. undermine great deal what we presently know about human which been obtained testing where it assumed stable, though never critically tested. Here show neuroplasticity builds during period and as there eye, resulting inherently unstable over time.
