Depression and later enhancement of the critical flicker frequency during prolonged monocular deprivation.

One eye was visually deprived for 1 day, and the critical flicker frequency in the other eye was determined at the start of the deprivation period and then at intervals of 3, 6, 9, 15, and 24 hours. There was an initial depression in performance, followed by an enhancement effect. No significant changes in the critical flicker frequency were observed in the occluded eye at corresponding times; thus the depression-enhancement phenomenon is specific to the nonoccluded eye.

Multi-flash campimetry in multiple sclerosis.

Data are reported from the initial stage of development of a psychophysical technique that allows temporal resolution to be sampled in 120 retinal locations per eye in half an hour. This computer generated test consists of systematically increasing the off period of a small spot of light, temporally modulated at 5 Hz, until the light is perceived as flickering. Visual field plots based on the data from control observers reveal good temporal resolution in the central visual field with a fall-off in resolving power in peripheral regions. Data from multiple sclerosis patients are characterized by "islands" of poor temporal resolution that presumably reflect demyelination along the optic nerve.
