AB  - Humans can adapt to reversal of the visual field after long-term wear of 
      reversing prism spectacles. Among various aspects of adaptation to reversed 
      vision, adjustment of visually-guided behavior has been consistently found. On 
      the other hand, there is relatively little quantitative evidence for 'perceptual 
      adaptation', for example, restoration of perceptual harmony between the visual 
      and tactile world. To elucidate perceptual adaptation to reversed vision, we 
      conducted long-term experiments with continuous wear of reversing spectacles. 
      Four human adult participants wore left-right reversing spectacles for 37 or 
      32days. Perceptual adaptation was examined by spatial left-right judgment tasks 
      for visual, auditory, and somatosensory stimuli. In the visuo-motor (VM) and 
      somato-visual (SV) tasks, correct responses disappeared completely at the 
      beginning of prism wearing, but gradually restored, first in the VM task, and 
      subsequently in the SV task. Moreover, the VM and SV tasks revealed aftereffects 
      (incorrect responses) upon removal of the reversing prisms after the long 
      adaptation period. In the auditory-motor (AM) task, responses were mostly correct 
      irrespective of the reversed vision, but incorrect responses transiently appeared 
      approximately when the adaptive change was first observed in the SV task. 
      Moreover, starting from the period when these changes in the SV and AM tasks 
      emerged, an adaptive sign of interhemispheric interaction was revealed by 
      functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging. These results indicate that perceptual 
      adaptation to reversed vision does occur, and that it proceeds to 
      visuo-somatosensory reorganization, which seems to transiently accompany global 
      cross-modal interactions.
