Vision restoration after brain and retina damage: the “residual vision activation theory”
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 …

Video-game play induces plasticity in the visual system of adults with amblyopia
RW Li, C Ngo, J Nguyen, DM Levi - PLoS biology, 2011 - journals.plos.org
Abnormal visual experience during a sensitive period of development disrupts neuronal
circuitry in the visual cortex and results in abnormal spatial vision or amblyopia. Here we …

Visual experience induces long-term potentiation in the primary visual cortex
Stimulus-specific response potentiation (SRP) is a robust form of experience-dependent
plasticity that occurs in primary visual cortex. In awake mice, visual evoked potentials (VEPs) …
