Pattern reversal visually evoked potentials in infants

S Sokol et al. Invest Ophthalmol. 1976 Jan.

Abstract

Visually evoked potentials (VEP) were recorded from infants two to six months of age using a checkerboard pattern reversal stimulus. By six months, infants produced the largest amplitude VEP to checks subtending visual angles of 7.5 or 15 minutes of arc, as do adults with 20/20 acuity. This finding indicates that by six months an infant's sensory capacity for a visual acuity of 20/20 is established.
