- fovea
fovea
it contains the cell bodies and process of retinal neurons receiving information
- macula
- fovea
macula
formed by retinal ganglion cell axons that are existing the retina

lower
dominate in the peripheral retina and has poor acuity

rods
breaks down when exposed to a wide bandwidth of light
- rods
- cones
rods
breaks down in the presence of a limited bandwidth of light
