Abstract
Amblyopia is common human visual disease. In this article, we use blood oxygenation level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging to study child amblyopica with independent component analysis method. Comparing the results of amblyopic eye viewing with that of normal eye viewing, we find that, on the one hand, human amblyopia may lead to occipital cortex dysfunction and reduce the activity of primary visual areas; on the other hand, it may extend visual stimuli into other stimuli reflection.
