Color vision
Abstract
Color is a fundamental aspect of normal visual experience. This chapter provides an overview of the role of color in human behavior, a survey of current knowledge regarding the genetic, retinal, and neural mechanisms that enable color vision, and a review of inherited and acquired defects of color vision including a discussion of diagnostic tests.
Keywords: Achromatopsia; Agnosia; Brain damage; Color blindness; Cone mosaic; Neuroimaging; Photopigment; Photoreceptors; Ventral visual pathway.
