(i) neural mechanisms of filling-in at the blind spot are probably involved explaining this perceptual phenomenon; (ii) any neuronal changes occurring at the edge of the lesion only affected filling-in within the scotoma area.

Perceptual filling in is facilitated at the corresponding area of retinal scotomas. The neural mechanisms of this visual facilitation might be similar to those found following somatosensory cortex partial deafferentation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
