In order to understand the spatial loss in strabismic amblyopia and its relationship to the contrast sensitivity deficit, we measured alignment performance for a three element vertical alignment task in which the elements were equi-visible, spatial Gabors. We derived the threshold and bias and compared these for stimuli of different spatial scale and eccentricity. Our results suggest that: (1) the deficits for alignment thresholds and bias are uncorrelated; (2) in the majority of strabismic amblyopes, both deficits are scale invariant; (3) the form of the regional distribution depends on the spatial measure used and the scale at which it is measured; and (4) there is a poor correlation between the deficit for either spatial measure and the contrast sensitivity loss.
