Anomalies in the contrast sensitivity functions of amblyopes are usually insufficient to account for the degree of visual deficit found in more complex tasks. Evidence is presented that many of the defects of amblyopic vision arise from a failure to encode the spatial phase relationships between detectable components of different spatial frequencies. It appears that visual processing in amblyopia occurs over a more truncated frequency range than is implied by detection experiments.
