Further remarks concerning visual images observed following unilateral enucleation.
Following an earlier report, the article offers additional points concerning visual images observed after enucleation. These concern: (i) the relationship between field-cut due to the lesion before surgery and corresponding blank areas within the post-enucleation images; (ii) similarities in motion between the foveal images and foveally-fixated afterimages; (iii) possible correspondence of time course of the images to transneuronal atrophy and cell loss in human and monkey studies.
