Abstract
In neonatally eye-enucleated rats, single unit responses to electrical shocks applied to the optic chiasm (OX) were recorded from the superior colliculus (SC), both contralateral (CONTRA) and ipsilateral (IPSI) to the remaining eye. As compared with the cells in the CONTRA SC, the IPSI SC cells had longer response latencies and lower response probabilities. The laminar distribution of cells responding to OX-shocks was about the same in the IPSI and CONTRA SCs; in both sides they were located within the superficial two layers; stratum griseum superficiale and stratum opticum.
