## Abstract Electrophysiological recordings were made from single neurons in striate cortex of normally reared kittens (group N), kittens raised with binocular lidβsuture (group BD), and kittens raised with one eye lidβsutured and the other eye removed (group MDβE). The MDβE group represents a cond
The relative effectiveness of the two eyes in exciting cells in the visual cortex was assessed, using both natural stimulation and electrical stimulation of the optic discs. It is is argued that supramaximal electrical stimulation of the optic nerve could possibly reveal 'subliminal' synaptic inputs
