Binocular rivalry was discovered by Porta. [6] Porta put one book in front of one eye, and another in front of the other. He reported that he could read from one book at a time and that changing from one to the other required withdrawing the "visual virtue" from one eye and moving it to the other.
Vergence-accommodation conflict can be quantified; typically, by comparing the optical power required to focus on objects at the vergence distance with the optical power required to focus on objects at the accommodation distance. [8] In this context, optical power is equal to the reciprocal of distance, with units of Diopter (m −1). Hence the ...
The visual system is the physiological basis of visual perception (the ability to detect and process light).The system detects, transduces and interprets information concerning light within the visible range to construct an image and build a mental model of the surrounding environment.
Vision itself relies on a basic biochemistry which is common to all eyes.

Morphology of a male skeleton shrimp, Caprella mutica Morphology in biology is the study of the form and structure of organisms and their specific structural features. [1]This includes aspects of the outward appearance (shape, structure, color, pattern, size), i.e. external morphology (or eidonomy), as well as the form and structure of internal parts like bones and organs, i.e. internal ...
