Primary visual cortex is necessary for blindsight-like behavior in neurologically healthy individuals: Review of transcranial magnetic stimulation studies

2021-03-25

Abstract excerpt

<p>The visual pathways that bypass the primary visual cortex (V1) are often assumed to support visually guided behavior in humans in the absence of conscious vision. This conclusion is largely based on findings on patients: V1 lesions cause blindness but sometimes leave some visually guided behaviors intact—this is known as blindsight. With the aim of examining how well the findings on blindsight patients generali...
