    Study Notes

    Light and Photopigments

    • Rods in the retina are activated when light without color (achromatic light) is reflected into the eyes.

    Color Perception (CP)

    • Enables recognition of objects and foods based on their color
    • Facilitates communication through colors (e.g., traffic lights, signs)
    • Enhances emotional and aesthetic experiences
    • Plays a role in reading and learning abilities

    Color Agnosia vs. Color Anomia

    • Color agnosia: inability to recognize and name colors despite normal color perception
    • Color anomia: inability to name colors, but can recognize and perceive colors normally

    Wavelengths and Color Perception

    • Color perception depends on the detection of wavelengths between approximately 400-450 nm (blue-violet) and 620-750 nm (red)
    • Different wavelengths within this range evoke different color sensations

    Chromatic Colors

    • Colors with hue (e.g., red, green, blue)
    • Result from the selective absorption of certain wavelengths of light by photopigments in the retina
