The postnatal development of the lateral geniculate nucleus has been studied quantitatively with the electron microscope in normal kittens and in kittens with eyelid closure. The maturation of the synaptic organization of glomeruli in the normal kitten occurs during the period of susceptibility to eyelid closure and is due predominantly to a logarithmic increase in the number of symmetric presynaptic dendritic synapses. In contrast, the pro­portion of symmetric synapses falls with age in non-glomerular neuropil over this period. Unilateral and bilateral eyelid suture do not interfere with the normal development of the lateral geniculate nucleus.
