Popis: | The visual field of dark-reared cats was behaviourally measured after several years of recovery in a normal environment. A reduction of the visual field was observed and affected the contralateral field as well as the ipsilateral field when tested in monocular viewing. The longer the deprivation period, the more reduced was the visual field. Our results suggest that binocular deprivation might have stabilized the visual system in an immature state. |
