Motion aftereffect after monocular adaptation to filled-in motion at the blind spot.

abstract：:This study measured the time course of psychophysical end-stopping and compared it with the time course of masking. For a 10' D6 target on an 18' D6 pedestal, two abutting end-zone masks (each 13.5' long) covering the filter end-zones reduce masking. This facilitatory 'end-stopping' effect was measured over a range of...

We have explored the effect of retinal blur induced by high order aberrations on dynamic accommodation by measuring the accommodative response to sinusoidal variations in accommodative demand (1-3D).

However, the origin of stimulus-related cortical oscillations is still not clear. We hypothesized that 40 Hz oscillations might propagate to the visual cortex from the late...
