Summary
This paper discusses the temporal, spatial and adaptation characteristics of melanopsin inputs to the human pupil light reflex, and how these factors contribute to the regulation of the human pupil light reflex.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the role of melanopsin, a photopigment found in the eye, in controlling the human pupil light reflex, and how this contributes to eye health.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how the human pupil light reflex, which is controlled by melanopsin, contributes to cognitive function and memory.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper's findings on how light affects the human pupil light reflex could have implications for lighting design.
