This is a confocal microscope image of rod and cone photoreceptors in a human retina. Fluorescent probes have been used to identify rod photoreceptors (green) and cone photoreceptors and ...
Evidence of rod and cone photoreceptor rescue by 1-cis diltiazem was quantified using techniques of immunohistochemistry, electrophysiology and photoreceptor counting. Of note, the authors ...
For mere clinical classification purposes, rod-cone dystrophies can be broadly divided into early onset forms (i.e., which are either consistently severe from birth with little progression ...
The retina is home to two different kinds of light receptor cells—rods and cones. (Both are named after their relative shapes.) Cones work in bright light and register detail, while rods work in ...
