Encoding Light Intensity by the Cone Photoreceptor Synapse

How cone synapses encode light intensity determines the precision of information transmission at the first synapse on the visual pathway. Although it is known that cone photoreceptors hyperpolarize to light over 4–5 log units of intensity, the relationship between light intensity and transmitter rel...
