1. We used the behavioral technique of conditioned suppression to measure spatial and temporal contrast sensitivity to counterphased, sine-wave gratings in eight cats. These included two normally reared cats before and after bilateral ablations of cortical area 17 and part of area 18, two cats raised in total darkness, two cats raised with binocular lid suture, and two cats raised with monocular lid suture, Visual deficits induced by cortical lesions or visual deprivation were evaluated with respect to the preoperative data of the normally reared cats. 2. The cortical lesions had virtually no qualitative effect on the cat’s visual capacities. Contrast sensitivity was reduced at higher but not lower spatial frequencies, and this can be described succinctly as a loss of spatial acuity.3. Dark-reared and binocularly sutured cats qualitatively exhibited poorer visual capacity than that of the cortically ablated animals. The contrast sensitivity resultant from these two forms of binocular deprivation was basically similar and consisted of significant sensitivity losses at all spatial and temporal frequencies. Much more than high spatial frequencies was affected, and this amblyopia cannot be characterized simply as a spatial acuity loss. 4. Monocularly sutured cats had normal vision and contrast sensitivity with the nondeprived eye, but with the deprived eye they displayed the most severe amblyopia and poorest contrast sensitivity of any of the cats. Again, sensitivity losses were evident for all spatial and temporal frequencies, and this
