Definition
English
:
Photosensitive afferent
neurons
located primarily within the
FOVEA CENTRALIS
of the
MACULA LUTEA
. There are three major types of cone
cells
(red, blue, and green) with photopigments of different spectral sensitivity curves. Retinal cone
cells
operate in daylight vision (at photopic intensities) providing
color
recognition and central
visual acuity
.
