Large-field trichromacy in protanopes and deuteranopes

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Protanopes and deuteranopes do not accept the classical dichromatic matches when field size extends to 8° visual angle. Their unique matches of spectral yellow to a mixture of red and green are then mediated by the photoreceptors of small-field dichromacy interacting with a photoreceptor with the spectral sensitivity of rhodopsin. Our data suggest that large-field trichromacy is a general feature of protanopia and deuteranopia.
