Primary visual cortical remapping in patients with inherited peripheral retinal degeneration

Primary visual cortical remapping in patients with inherited peripheral retinal degeneration

Human studies addressing the long-term effects of peripheral retinal degeneration on visual cortical function and structure are scarce. Here we investigated this question in patients with Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a genetic condition leading to peripheral visual degeneration. We acquired functional...
