Difference between Cortical magnification and Visual acuity

Cortical magnification vs. Visual acuity

Cortical magnification describes how many neurons in an area of the visual cortex are 'responsible' for processing a stimulus of a given size, as a function of visual field location. Visual acuity (VA) commonly refers to the clarity of vision.

Similarities between Cortical magnification and Visual acuity

Cortical magnification and Visual acuity have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cerebral cortex, Fovea centralis, Retina, Visual cortex.

Cerebral cortex

The cerebral cortex is the largest region of the cerebrum in the mammalian brain and plays a key role in memory, attention, perception, cognition, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness.

Fovea centralis

The fovea centralis is a small, central pit composed of closely packed cones in the eye.

Retina

The retina is the innermost, light-sensitive "coat", or layer, of shell tissue of the eye of most vertebrates and some molluscs.

Cortical magnification and Visual acuity Comparison

Cortical magnification has 9 relations, while Visual acuity has 142. As they have in common 4, the Jaccard index is 2.65% = 4 / (9 + 142).
