New research in mice suggests that 'dormant' cone photoreceptors in the degenerating retina are not dormant at all, but continue to function, producing responses to light and driving retinal activity ...

We measured monocular visual function—high-contrast visual acuity (HC-VA), central visual fields (mean sensitivity, MS), colour vision (desaturated Panel D-15), Pelli–Robson (P–R), and cone- and ...

New UCLA research in mice suggests that "dormant" cone photoreceptors in the degenerating retina are not dormant at all, but continue to function, producing responses to light and driving retinal ...

A: Zebrafish retinas at 3 days-post-fertilization (dpf). The neural retina consists of six major classes of neurons including two types of photoreceptors, rods and cones. B: Rod and cone ...

Johns Hopkins scientists have discovered that the eye's vision-producing rods and cones cannot tell the difference between their respective light-detecting molecules. The findings appeared in a recent ...

In the retinas of human eyes, the cones are photoreceptor cells responsible for color vision, daylight vision, and the perception of small details. As vision scientists from the Division of ...

In vertebrate retinas, specialized photoreceptors responsible for color vision (cone cells) arrange themselves in patterns known as the "cone mosaic." Researchers at the Okinawa Institute of Science ...

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--jCyte, Inc., today announced key findings presented at AAO 2021 which demonstrated that retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients with a baseline central visual field ...
