Patients with strabismus perceptually suppress information from one eye to avoid double vision. Mechanisms of visual suppression likely lead to fixation-switch behavior wherein the subject acquires targets with a specific eye depending on target location in space. The purpose of this study was to investigate spatial patterns of fixation-switch behavior in strabismic monkeys.
