Title The Relative Afferent Pupillary Defect May Be a Test of Visual Cortex Binocular Cell Activity: A Novel Method of Fusion Recovery with Worth 4-Dot Test
Creator Lenworth N. Johnson, MD
Affiliation Columbia, Missouri
Subject Relative Afferent Pupillary Defect; Visual Cortex Test; Binocular Cell Activity; 4-Dot Test; Neutral Density Filters
Description The relative afferent pupillary defect appears to represent computation -- summation/facilitation/inhibition -- of visually stimulated binocular cell activity. In order to gain insight about the genesis of the relative afferent pupillary defect, we have looked at the afferent pupillary defect and its relationship to visual cortex binocular cell activity as indicated by commonly used clinical tests of fusion by the Worth 4-dot test and stereopsis by the Titmus stereo test.
