Summary
This paper discusses the contributions of melanopsin and rhodopsin to the early phase of the Post-Illumination Pupil Response (PIPR), finding that melanopsin solely controls the PIPR from 1.7 seconds after light offset, while both melanopsin and rhodopsin contribute to the PIPR at times less than 1.7 seconds after light offset.

Eye health: The paper investigates the role of melanopsin and rhodopsin in the Post-Illumination Pupil Response (PIPR), which is relevant to understanding eye health and function.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper's investigation into the PIPR, which is controlled by melanopsin and rhodopsin, contributes to the understanding of cognitive function as it relates to visual processing and perception.
