“…In the past decade, PL has started to be considered a useful tool for improving visual functions in clinical populations due to its generalizable effects. In fact, under specific conditions, PL is able to transfer to other stimuli, tasks and circumstances (Camilleri, Pavan, Ghin, Battaglini, et al, 2014;Jeter, Dosher, Petrov, & Lu, 2009;Liu & Weinshall, 2000;Maniglia, et al, 2011;McGovern, Webb, & Peirce, 2012;Webb, Roach, & McGraw, 2007;Xiao, et al, 2008;Zhou, et al, 2006), making it a practical tool that may yield potential benefits for various types of visual impairments. In general, most studies point to a localized increase in processing efficiency in V1 following practice on a visual perceptual task.…”
