Description |
When an eye becomes deviated in early childhood a person does not experience double vision. In alternating exotropia, the extra image is prevented from reaching perception by suppression of each eye's peripheral temporal retina. To test the impact of suppression on neuronal activity in primary visual cortex, the pattern of cytochrome oxidase (CO) staining was examined in macaques raised with exotropia. |
