    Visual evoked potentials (VEPs) show significant differences between dominant and non-dominant eyes in healthy adults. These findings suggest electrophysiological evidence of nervous system lateralization.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Ophthalmology
    • Physiology

    Background:

    • The visual system exhibits complex lateralization, but direct electrophysiological evidence comparing dominant and non-dominant eyes is limited.
    • Understanding eye dominance influences on visual processing is crucial for interpreting visual evoked potentials (VEPs).

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate amplitude and latency differences in pattern-reversal VEPs between the dominant and non-dominant eyes.
    • To explore the relationship between eye dominance, handedness, and VEP characteristics.

    Main Methods:

    • Pattern-reversal visual evoked potentials (VEPs) were recorded in 25 healthy volunteers.
    • VEPs were analyzed for amplitude and P100 peak latency differences between stimulation of the dominant and non-dominant eyes.

  • Subjects were categorized based on right or left eye dominance and handedness.

    • Main Results:

    • Significantly higher VEP amplitudes were observed from the dominant eye compared to the non-dominant eye in right-eye dominant subjects across both hemispheres and midline.
    • A similar trend, though less significant, was noted in left-eye dominant subjects.
    • The mean P100 peak latency was significantly shorter when stimulating the dominant eye.

    Conclusions:

    • Amplitude and latency disparities between dominant and non-dominant eyes provide electrophysiological evidence of visual system lateralization.
    • Eye dominance influences VEP measures, highlighting its role in neural processing.
    • Handedness did not significantly affect the observed amplitude asymmetry.
