Abstract

Humans with amblyopia show marked deficits in positional judgments. We measured Vernier acuity for edges and lines over a wide range of contrast. Our results suggest that in both amblyopic and normal eyes, the spatial localization of abutting edges or lines improves with increasing stimulus contrast (with a slope of about -0.6 on log-log coordinates).
