25.01.2022 MACULAR MONTH Did you know??? The macula is part of the retina at the back of the eye. It is only about 5mm across but is responsible for all of our central vision, most of our colour vision and the fine detail of what we see

16.01.2022 How many colours do you see? An expert in neuromarketing created a post on LinkedIn explaining the basics of vision. The colour nuances we see depend on the number and distribution of cones ( = colour receptors) in our eye, wrote Diana Derval on LinkedIn.... If you see less than 20 colours, you are like 25% of the population and dichromat. Dichromats have two types of colour receptors. Derval says dichromats are likely to wear black, beige and blue. If you see between 20 and 32 colours, you have three types of colour receptors. About 50% of the population are trichromats. If you see between 33 and 39 colours, you are a tetrachromat and have four types of cones. Derval says tetrachromats are irritated by the colour yellow but are less likely to be tricked by the blue/black or white/gold dress, no matter the lighting. Only about 25% of the population is tetrachromat. In case you were wondering, there were 39 different colours in the test. Via: https://kfor.com//test-how-many-colors-you-see-can-determ/
