This paper summarizes the postnatal development of the visual system in a format that separates the various parts and functions into Input Components, Transmitting Components, Integrative Mechanisms, and Visually Induced Cognitive Behaviour. This treatment of a number of studies and philosophies that comprise the field of infants' vision indicates that most components and mechanisms are fully operative by the end of the second year of life.
Five rationales for the optometric evaluation of laterality and directionality are identified in this paper. These include an application of particular studies in the infant's vision literature along with theories of Hershenson, Piaget, Gesell and Kephart and the phenomenon of reversal confusion frequently associated with learning-disabled children. Selected optometric testing procedures are viewed in the context of these rationales.
