Analysis of retinal correspondence by studying receptive fields of binocular single units in cat striate cortex.

The concept of corresponding retinal points was examined in terms of the binocular receptive fields of neurons in Area 17 of the cerebral cortex of the cat. Only a proportion of the binocular receptive field pairs can be accurately superimposed at the one time in a given plane. The fields which are not corresponding are said to show receptive field disparity. The attempt has been made to establish, on a quantitative basis, the parameters of the receptive field disparities that occur within 5° of the visual axis. A new method was used for defining the zero (vertical) meridian. Very effective paralysis of the extraocular muscles was achieved and the very small residual eye movements that occurred were regularly monitored so that corrections could be applied to the plotted positions of the receptive field pairs. The distribution of the receptive field disparities about the position of maximal correspondence has a range of about ±1.2° (S.D. 0.6°) in both the horizontal and vertical directions for fields in the vicinity of the visual axis. Panum's fusional area may represent the extent to which receptive fields in the one eye, all with the same visual direction, are linked to fellow members of a pair in the other eye over a range of receptive field disparities. A naso-temporal overlap of receptive fields occurs which is probably little if any more than can be accounted for on the basis of the disparity of receptive fields lying along the zero (vertical) meridian. When the extraocular muscles are paralyzed the eyes diverge and the binocular receptive field pairs are separated on the tangent screen. The distribution of the horizontal and vertical separations of the receptive field pairs have been examined.
