    Abstract:
    For the analysis of plastic rearrangements in the visual system under the influence of different conditions of adaptation and early deprivation of objective vision, VEPs to checkerboard patterns with various check sizes were studied in subjects with normal vision and with amblyopia resulting from a congenital cataract. Sensitivity of P 180-230 component to the check sizes was revealed as well as a shift of its optimum toward bigger sizes following a transition from the light to the dark adaptation. In amblyopic subjects, in response to the checkerboard patterns the amplitude of P 80-120 component significantly increased, whereas that of P 180-230 decreased, with a shift of its optimum toward bigger check sizes. Informational significance of VEP waves and possible mechanisms of amblyopia are discussed.
