Theories on visual perception agree that scenes are processed in terms of spatial
frequencies. Low spatial frequencies (LSF) carry coarse information whereas high spatial …

Blindsight is the ability of patients with clinically blind field defects, caused by damage to the
primary visual cortex V, to detect, localise and even discriminate visual stimuli that they deny …

Aims. To profile site of stroke/cerebrovascular accident, type and extent of field loss,
treatment options, and outcome. Methods. Prospective multicentre cohort trial. Standardised …

Vision loss after retinal or cerebral visual injury (CVI) was long considered to be irreversible.
However, there is considerable potential for vision restoration and recovery even in …

Damage to the primary visual cortex (V1) causes homonymous visual-field loss long
considered intractable. Multiple studies now show that perceptual training can restore visual …

Numerous behavioral studies have shown that visual function can improve with training,
although perceptual refinements generally require weeks to months of training to attain …

Objective: Patients with homonymous hemianopia are disabled on everyday exploratory
activities. We examined whether explorative saccade training (EST), compared with flicker …

The visual system has one of the most complex structures of all sensory systems and is
perhaps the most important sense for everyday life. Its functional organization was …

Purpose: Partial blindness after visual system damage is considered irreversible, yet the
brain has residual visual capacities and considerable plasticity potential. We now applied …

Cortical blindness is a chronic loss of vision following damage to the primary visual cortex
(V1) or its postchiasmal afferents. Such damage is followed by a brief period of spontaneous …
