The adult human visual system maintains the ability to be altered by sensory deprivation.
What has not been considered is whether the internal neural states modulate visual …

Neuroplasticity is maximal during development and declines in adulthood, especially for
sensory cortices. On the other hand, the motor and prefrontal cortices retain plasticity …

The visual system can regulate its sensitivity depending on the prevailing contrast
conditions. This is known as contrast adaptation and reflects contrast gain changes at …

Brain plasticity and function is impaired in conditions of metabolic dysregulation, such as
obesity. Less is known on whether brain function is also affected by transient and …

Purpose Recent investigations observed substantial enhancements in binocular balance,
visual acuity, and stereovision among older children and adults with amblyopia by patching …

The ocular dominance shift observed after short-term monocular deprivation is a widely
used measure of visual homeostatic plasticity in adult humans. Binocular rivalry and …

Previous studies have shown that short-term monocular pattern deprivation can shift
perceptual dominance in favor of the deprived eye. However, little is known about the effect …

Patching one eye of an adult human for a few hours has been found to promote the
dominance of the patched eye, which is called short-term monocular deprivation effect …
