Visual rehabilitation and reorganization: case studies of cortical plasticity in patients with age-related macular degeneration

The extent to which cortical maps may reorganize in adult humans is a significant and topical debate in visual neuroscience. Though there are conflicting findings, evidence from humans and animals indicates that the topography of the visual cortex may change after retinal deafferentation. Remarkably...
