Both can be blamed. If I'm top and my opponent really wins the lane:

I have to: -> Stay defensive ->Wait for the jungler to finish what he started (creep camp or blue/red buff+back) -> Try to keep my health for the upcomming gank (it has to be a 2 on 1). ->Its better to call for it long before so that he comes when he's actually jungling on your side of the map. -> Check if your opponent ward.

The jungler has to: -> Come and not start X new creep camps. -> If he's too slow, you risk to get harassed and thus won't be able to try a gank at all.

So, both can be blamed from time to time. Sometimes the jungler, more often the laner.
