Highlights • Blind infants/children have alpha activity even if weaker vs sighted counterpart.• First great differentiation within 3–6 Y.• Lower alpha increases in blind the probability of motor impairment/hypotonia.• Vision mediates the neural mechanisms generating alpha during earliest life.• 3–6 Y is a sensitive period for the plasticity of this process in humans.
