George M. Stratton

George M. Stratton was an American psychologist known for his work on perception and the human visual system. He conducted experiments where he wore specially designed glasses that inverted or shifted his visual field, causing the world to appear upside down or distorted. Over time, his brain adapted to these changes, and he could function normally in this altered view. His research demonstrated the brain's remarkable ability to adapt and recalibrate sensory input, providing important insights into perception, neuroplasticity, and how we interpret visual information.
