Some new findings about the function of the primary visual cortex of blind people are attributed to the advancement of modern technology. The discoveries in neuroscience informed us of some enlightening facts. The blind people’s visual cortex wasn’t lying dormant, it had been recruited by other senses (Kennedy and Juricevic, 2006). Another observed phenomenon is that Visio-auditory interactions…

The Discoveries in Neuroscience about Spatial perception of the visually impaired

There are some findings of the function of the primary visual cortex of blind people.

From the discoveries in neuroscience informed us of the following facts.

The blind people’s visual cortex wasn’t lying dormant, it had been recruited by other senses (Kennedy and Juricevic, 2006).

Another fact is that Visio-auditory interactions occur in the primary visual cortex of blind people.…
