Abstract
We assessed 18 children with unilateral amblyopia and 30 age-matched controls on one low-level and three high-level motion tasks. Children with amblyopia showed similar performance to controls in both amblyopic and fellow eyes on a low-level global motion task and on a high-level 2-dot apparent motion task. Performance on both single-object and multiple-object attentive tracking tasks was significantly depressed in both amblyopic and fellow eyes relative to controls. These findings suggest that binocular regions of posterior parietal cortex likely contribute to a deficit in voluntary, spatial attention that is a component of amblyopia.
