## Abstract One class of goldfish bipolar cells, the mixedβinput bipolar cell, contacts both rods and cones. Although the morphology of the different mixedβinput bipolar cell subtypes has been described, insight into the interaction between rods and cones at the bipolar cell level is scarce. The ai

## Abstract Mammalian retinal circuits are broadly divided into rod and cone pathways, responsible for darkβ and lightβadapted vision, respectively. The classic rod pathway employs a single type of rod bipolar cell, which synapses with AII amacrine cells. AII amacrine cells then pass the signal to
Spectral sensitivity functions and the transient decrease of sensitivity to short wavelengths after the offset of yellow light (transient tritanopia) were measured by increment threshold techniques in patients suffering from hereditary macular degenerations. Color vision defects were determined by a
## Abstract Inherited retinal degeneration affecting both rod and cone photoreceptors constitutes one of the leading causes of blindness in the developed world. Such degeneration is at present untreatable, and the underlying neurodegenerative mechanisms are unknown, even though certain genetic caus
