Retinocortical time exhibits spatial selectivity.

We recorded simultaneous electroretinograms and visual evoked potentials to pattern-reversal stimulus in ten normal subjects employing check sizes subtending 7.5, 15, 30, 60, 120, 240 and 480 min of visual arc. The mean peak latency of the pattern electroretinogram (PERG) b wave decreased logarithmically with increasing check size. The mean peak latency of the pattern visual evoked potential (P...

Retinotopic distribution of chromatic responses in human primary visual cortex.

In non-human primates at least three anatomically and functionally distinct channels convey signals from the retina to the primary visual cortex (V1). Two of these channels, the parvocellular and the koniocellular, are sensitive to chromatic contrasts and form the basis of color vision. In humans, common phylogenetic history with other primates and psychophysical experiments suggest identical r...

Pattern ERGs and visual evoked potentials in maculopathies and optic nerve diseases.

Normative data were obtained in 52 volunteers to both transient and steady-state checkerboard pattern reversal. Two sizes of checks subtending 15' and 31' of visual angle were used. The simultaneous recording of pattern ERGs (P-ERGs) and visual evoked potentials (VEPs) permitted the determination of the retinocortical time. That is, the transit time expressed in milliseconds between the activat...

Recovery in microtropia: implications for aetiology and neurophysiology.

AIMS/BACKGROUND The basis of binocular single vision in microtropia remains a matter of contention. This paper discusses the implications of recovery, in a group of primary microtropes following treatment, in relation to current concepts on the aetiology of the condition and proposed retinocortical correspondence. METHODS Nine previously untreated primary microtropes whose condition resolved,...
