What is Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI)? CVI refers to a brain condition, not an eye condition and results from damage to the visual systems in the brain that deal with processing and integrating ...

First, V4v and V8 have separate foveal representations, approximately 3.5 cm apart along the cortical surface. Second, V4v and V8 each include separate representations of the upper visual field ...

Unlike other vision impairments, CVI stems from an injury to the visual centers of the brain that affects how it communicates with the eyes. People with CVI usually have healthy eyes but have trouble ...

Elon Musk recently declared on X that Blindsight, a cortical implant to restore vision, would have low resolution at first "but may ultimately exceed normal human vision." That pronouncement is ...

As a result, precise and reliable spike trains can sometimes be obtained in response to time-varying stimulus waveforms (when the spikes are aligned to stimulus onset), or in response to cortical ...

This valuable study combines experiments and theory to investigate the putative role of spontaneous correlated activity in establishing aligned topographic maps of neural activity in higher-order ...

The term CVI can be confusing. Traditionally, CVI stood for Cortical Visual impairment. This means that while the eyes may look healthy there is damage to the visual pathway which results in visual ...

Known as cerebral (or cortical) visual impairment (CVI), some estimates suggest that at least 3% of primary school children exhibit CVI-related visual problems, which vary, but may include ...

We are visual animals. More than one fourth of our cerebral cortex is sensitive primarily to visual stimulation and the long research interest has made it the best-known cortical system. Lesions of ...

New research led by a team at the University of Tokyo sheds light on the relationship between internally generated noise and ...

Director of RMLIMS, Dr CM Singh, also said that he is determined to expand the facilities in the ophthalmology department at ...
