Vision in observers with enhanced S-cone syndrome: an excess of s-cones but connected mainly to conventional s-cone pathways.
PURPOSE The effect of increased numbers of S-cone photoreceptors in enhanced S-cone syndrome (ESCS) was investigated psychophysically in six ESCS observers to understand more about relative cone sensitivities and postreceptoral organization. METHODS Measures of temporal sensitivity or delay were made: S- and L-cone temporal acuity (critical flicker fusion, or CFF), S-cone temporal contrast se...

متن کاملParallel pathways for spectral coding in primate retina.
The primate retina is an exciting focus in neuroscience, where recent data from molecular genetics, adaptive optics, anatomy, and physiology, together with measures of human visual performance, are converging to provide new insights into the retinal origins of color vision. Trichromatic color vision begins when the image is sampled by short- (S), middle- (M) and long- (L) wavelength-sensitive c...
متن کاملThe Verriest Lecture: Short-wave-sensitive cone pathways across the life span.
Structurally and functionally, the short-wave-sensitive (S) cone pathways are thought to decline more rapidly with normal aging than the middle- and long-wave-sensitive cone pathways. This would explain the celebrated results by Verriest and others demonstrating that the largest age-related color discrimination losses occur for stimuli on a tritan axis. Here, we challenge convention, arguing fr...
متن کاملThe Enhanced S Cone Syndrome: An Analysis of Receptoral and Post-receptoral Changes
The purpose of the study was to test the hypothesis that the retinae of patients with enhanced S cone syndrome (ESCS) have more S cones than the normal retina and these cones have replaced some of the L and M cones. Standard and spectral full-field electroretinograms, measurements of L, M, and S cone system sensitivities and S cone acuity were obtained from three patients with ESCS. The results...
