Symmetry Detection in Visual Impairment: Behavioral Evidence and Neural Correlates

Symmetry Detection in Visual Impairment: Behavioral Evidence and Neural Correlates

Bilateral symmetry is an extremely salient feature for the human visual system. An interesting issue is whether the perceptual salience of symmetry is rooted in normal visual development. In this review, we discuss empirical work on visual and tactile symmetry detection in normally sighted and visua...
