retinal anatomy  

Definición

  • Human vision operates over a huge range of light intensities, from the dimmest starlight to the brightest snow slope. Light enters the eye and is transformed by the retina into patterns of nerve impulses that pass up the optic nerve from eye to brain, and code the multiple dimensions of our vision: time, space, and color.
