With the development of the microscope, Langhans was later able to describe these pathophysiologic glomerular…

Color blindness is the inability to differentiate between different colors. The most common type is red-green color blindness. This occurs in 8 percent of males and 0.4 percent of females. It occurs when either the red or green cones are not present or not functioning properly. People with this problem are not completely unable to see red or green, but often confuse the two colors. This is an inherited disorder and affects men more commonly since the capacity for color vision is located on…

The color-responsive chemicals in the cones are called cone pigments and are very similar to the chemicals in the rods. The retinal portion of the chemical is the same, however the scotopsin is replaced with photopsins. Therefore, the color-responsive pigments are made of retinal and photopsins. There are three kinds of color-sensitive pigments:

- Red-sensitive pigment

- Green-sensitive pigment

- Blue-sensitive pigment

Each cone cell has one of these pigments so…

Low vision or subnormal vision may be defined as; reduced vision which even the best correction with regular spectacles still results in impairment from a performance standpoint.

A low vision specialist can determine through examination, devices, i.e. special magnifying devices or computer technology, that might help a patient with low vision perform tasks they haven't been able to do because of their visionLow vision affects people at school, on the job and at home.
