Pattern and flicker detection examined in terms of the nasal-temporal division of the retina

Pattern and flicker detection examined in terms of the nasal-temporal division of the retina

R Blake et al. Perception. 1979.

Abstract

Contrast thresholds for the detection of flicker and the detection of pattern were measured for nasal and temporal retinae of each eye separately. While confirming that these two types of threholds can differ, depending on the spatial frequency, the results provide no support for hemiretinal or hemispheric asymmetries in the distribution of the putative pattern and movement channels.
