Abstract
Introduction:
The human eye is an organ which reacts to light and pressure. As a sense organ, the mammalian
eye allows vision. Human eyes help provide a three dimensional, moving image, normally
colored in daylight. Rod and cone cells in the retina allow conscious light perception and vision
including color differentiation and the perception of depth. The human eye can differentiate
between about 10 million colors and is possibly capable of detecting a single photon.
Similar to the eyes of other mammals, the human eye's non-image-forming photosensitive
ganglion cells in the retina receive light signals which affect adjustment of the size of the pupil,
regulation and suppression of the hormone melatonin and entrainment of the body clock. (1)
