Study Summary

The research deals with amblyopia or lazy eye, a condition that affects about 3% of the population, and results in a variety of visual deficits. Recent work suggests that there is limited neural plasticity in the visual system of adults with amblyopia. This study is aimed at understanding and increasing this plasticity. In this study, the investigators aim to understand how the amblyopic brain learns and how this process is affected by a drug called donepezil, which is sometimes given as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease. The investigators hope that this study will help to identify the chemical components that help the brain to learn, as well as the mechanism of amblyopia. The investigators also plan to test the normal periphery, as control.

Primary Outcome

During training, for each trial, participants' responses can be categorized as correct or incorrect. The investigators will use the percent-correct performance to quantify the performance in each block, and this percent-correct performance will be measured throughout training (i.e. for each block on each day (10 blocks per day), and for 10 training days).
