Fig. 15 Diagram of neural connections in anomalous retinal correspondence. Equally spaced points a, b, d, and e around point c in visual space project through the nodal points of the eyes onto the retinas. Note that the projection onto the cortex gives preferential weighting to the foveal region (around point c). Development of anomalous retinal correspondence in strabismus gives distorted match of left to right connections from left and right eyes. Region abc from the right eye (stippled) has anomalous connection relative to region abc from the left eye (cross-hatched). |
