“…Both human and non-human primates with V1 lesions exhibit visually-guided perceptual abilities within their blind field, despite lacking awareness (Ajina and Bridge, 2016;Leopold, 2012;Weiskrantz et al, 1974). Because blindsight is elicited by large stimuli with high-temporal and low-spatial frequency content, it is thought to rely mainly on direct geniculo-hMT+ and superior colliculus-pulvinar-extrastriate projections (Ajina and Bridge, 2016;Ajina and Kennard, 2012;Ajina et al, 2015;Bridge et al, 2008;Leopold, 2012;Schmid et al, 2010;Weiskrantz et al, 1974). Accordingly, some rehabilitation approaches have targeted blindsight to help CB patients recruit these unconscious processes, with some evidence of increased visual performance and awareness post-training (Chokron et al, 2008;Melnick et al, 2016b;Perez and Chokron, 2014;Sahraie et al, 2010;Sahraie et al, 2006).…”
