Plasticity in the developing visual system: The effects of retinal lesions made in young rats

The central visual pathways of the rat have been used as a model for investigating the significance of axonal interactions in mammalian neural development. Attention is restricted largely to the aberrant distribution of optic axons to the ipsilateral side of the brain and their distribution in the superior colliculus after early unilateral eye damage.
