Throughout the retina, the parameters of the probability distribution of visual acuity for monochromatic interference fringes are closely proportional to the number of retinal ganglion cells per degree of visual angle. There are no simple relationships to receptor spatial frequencies. These findings suggest that neuro-retinal acuity is determined principally by the spatial frequency of neural output channels.
