Figure 1. Schematic diagrams of visual water mazes used to test visual acuity. (A) Task 1: view from above of visual water maze which required subjects to view computer screens from a submergible platform located in middle of the pool. Following a fixed viewing time, the computer monitors were blanked and the viewing platform submerged, forcing subjects to swim to a submerged escape platform adjacent to the monitor previously displaying a grating stimulus. (B) Task 2: view from above of visual water maze modeled after Prusky et al. (2000). Following placement of subject at release point, subjects were required to swim to choice partition and choose the side of the pool where the monitor displayed a grating stimulus in order to escape to a submerged platform. See methods for details.
