Preferred Label : Rod-Cone interaction;
MeSH definition : Reciprocal action of two vertebrate photoreceptor cells (RODS AND CONES). Rod-cone
interaction occurs during MESOPIC VISION in which both rods and cones are active in
light transduction to the VISUAL CORTEX. Such interaction can influence visual sensitivity
and luminous efficiency.;
