Changes in sensitivity of the dark-adapted eye during concurrent light adaptation of the other eye.

- Abstract
Thresholds for detection of light by a dark-adapted test eye were measured while the other, non-test eye was either similarly dark adapted or while it was exposed to an intense red adapting field. An interocular effect that depends on the retinal location of the test was found: compared to the threshold during binocular dark adaptation, sensitivity decreased during contralateral light adaptation when the test was presented to the foveola and up to 4 deg above it; but sensitivity increased when the test was between 7 and 12 deg, showing a reversal at 5 deg.
