Eye Opening Primes Synaptic Maturation by Enhancing AMPA Receptor-Mediated Transmission and Spinogenesis in the Developing Superior Colliculus.

Eye opening represents a critical milestone in postnatal visual development, triggering experience-dependent plasticity that refines neural circuits across visual pathways. While synaptic maturation in the thalamocortical system has been extensively…
