A simple mechanism for emmetropization without cues from accommodation or colour.

Abstract:

:We propose and test the simple hypothesis that a chicken eye can emmetropize without cues derived from accommodation or colour just by maximizing retinal image contrast. Using different translucent occluders with known modulation transfer functions we found that deprivation myopia is correlated with the amount of image degradation. Equipped with a long-term integrator, a mechanism minimizing image degradation by changing the axial eye growth rate would therefore be sufficient to place the plane of focus of the eye at the average viewing distance.

  • A metanalysis of the effect of the Müller-Lyer illusion on saccadic eye movements: no general support for a dissociation of perception and oculomotor action.

    abstract::Milner and Goodale's (1995) proposal of a functional division of labor between vision-for-perception and vision-for-action is supported by neuropsychological, brain-imaging, and psychophysical evidence. However, there remains considerable debate as to whether, as their proposal would predict, the effect of contextual ...
