Spatial information and uncertainty in anisometropic amblyopia
Anisometropic amblyopes were found to have a reduced sensitivity for shape discrimination. The introduction of positional jitter in the elements of the display had a profound effect on the performance of the normal eye, but not on that of the amblyopic eye. On the other hand the introduction of gaus...

Summary: | Anisometropic amblyopes were found to have a reduced sensitivity for shape discrimination. The introduction of positional jitter in the elements of the display had a profound effect on the performance of the normal eye, but not on that of the amblyopic eye. On the other hand the introduction of gaussian blur affects the performance of both eyes to the same degree. We conclude that rasied spatial uncertainty due to metrical scrambling is a suitable model for anisometropic amblyopia. |
