Talk:Averted vision
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Cone density
It doesn't seem that the mention of the density of the cones in the fovea is relevant, as the article on scotopic vision states that cones are non-functional in low light. So the rather that the rod density is higher than the cone density has nothing to do with averted vision, simply the fact that the rod density itself is nonexistant in the fovea, and rods are the effective type of optical receptor in low light. I'd suggest a re-wording, maybe I'm missing something. 128.227.68.119 12:24, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, I think you are correct that the density is not really important: what is important is the absence of rods in the center. I was mainly going off what I had read in this article. I reworded it to make it more clear and concise. Feel free to improve it further if you can. Danski14(talk) 18:25, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
