2. Retinal implant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_implant

   Therefore, unlike natural vision, eye movements do not shift the transmitted image on the retina, which creates a perception of the moving object when person with such an implant changes the direction of gaze. Therefore, patients with such implants are asked to not move their eyes, but rather scan the visual field with their head.

3. Rod cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_cell

   Rods are a little longer and leaner than cones but have the same basic structure. Opsin-containing disks lie at the end of the cell adjacent to the retinal pigment epithelium, which in turn is attached to the inside of the eye. The stacked-disc structure of the detector portion of the cell allows for very high efficiency. Rods are much more ...

4. Retinal regeneration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_regeneration

   Rods, cones and nerve layers in the retina. The front (anterior) of the eye is on the left. Light (from the left) passes through several transparent nerve layers to reach the rods and cones (far right). A chemical change in the rods and cones send a signal back to the nerves.

5. Barreleye - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barreleye

   The high number of rods in their eyes' retinae allows barreleyes to resolve the silhouettes of objects overhead in the faintest of ambient light (and to accurately distinguish bioluminescent light from ambient light), and their binocular vision allows the fish to accurately track and home in on small zooplankton such as hydroids, copepods, and ...

6. Adaptation (eye) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptation_(eye)

   The human eye can function from very dark to very bright levels of light; its sensing capabilities reach across nine orders of magnitude. This means that the brightest and the darkest light signal that the eye can sense are a factor of roughly 1,000,000,000 apart. However, in any given moment of time, the eye can only sense a contrast ratio of ...
