The term "binocular disparity" refers to geometric measurements made external to the eye. The disparity of the images on the actual retina depends on factors internal to the eye, especially the location of the nodal points, even if the cross section of the retina is a perfect circle. Disparity on retina conforms to binocular disparity when ...
Ocular dominance. Ocular dominance, sometimes called eye preference or eyedness, [ 1] is the tendency to prefer visual input from one eye to the other. [ 2] It is somewhat analogous to the laterality of right- or left- handedness; however, the side of the dominant eye and the dominant hand do not always match. [ 3]
Binocular vision. Principle of binocular vision with horopter shown. In biology, binocular vision is a type of vision in which an animal has two eyes capable of facing the same direction to perceive a single three-dimensional image of its surroundings. Binocular vision does not typically refer to vision where an animal has eyes on opposite ...
These fish demonstrate an individual eye preference when examining their reflection in a mirror. Fish which show a right-eye preference in the mirror test prefer to be on the left side of the school. Conversely, fish that show a left-eye preference in the mirror test or were non-lateralised, prefer to be slightly to the right side of the school.
A simulation of the ocular dominance column pattern, as might be seen if the surface of V1 were colored according to eye preference. A typical map of the relationship between ocular dominance, orientation, and cytochrome oxidase. Dark and light areas represent neurons that respond preferentially to the left and right eye.
Split-brain or callosal syndrome is a type of disconnection syndrome when the corpus callosum connecting the two hemispheres of the brain is severed to some degree. It is an association of symptoms produced by disruption of, or interference with, the connection between the hemispheres of the brain. The surgical operation to produce this ...
The test, using images of many kinds of dogs, showed a small and big dog and played a growl. Twenty of the 24 test dogs looked at the image of the appropriately sized dog first and looked at it longest. [14] Depending on the context, a dog's bark can vary in timing, pitch, and amplitude. It is possible that these have different meanings. [15]
Droopy eyes and signs of injury. There are other eye problems that require plastic surgery as well. Mastiffs and bloodhounds are often born with “big droopy eyelids” that refuse to close ...
