Plasticity of monocular and binocular vision following cerebral blindness: evoked potential evidence

Using monocular and dynamic random dot correlogram (DRDC) stimuli, sequential visual evoked potentials changes were demonstrated in 2 patients following cerebral blindness. The recovery of binocular vision was delayed in comparison to the recovery of monocular vision. The results are not due to simple acuity impairment or convergence deficiency, and thus provide evidence for the vulnerability of postsynaptic cortical mechanisms of human binocular vision.
