Above a certain luminance level ( about 0.03 cd / m ), the cone mechanism is involved in mediating vision; photopic vision.
12.
Adaptation is much faster under photopic vision; it can occur in 5 minutes for photopic vision but it can take 30 minutes to transition from photopic to scotopic.

"' Photopic vision "'is the color perception, mediated by cone cells, and a significantly higher visual acuity and temporal resolution than available with scotopic vision.

Mesopic vision occurs in intermediate lighting conditions ( luminance level 10 " 3 to 10 0.5 cd / m?) and is effectively a combination of scotopic and photopic vision.
16.
In contrast, cone cells are less sensitive to the overall intensity of light, but come in three varieties that are sensitive to different frequency-ranges and thus are used in the perception of colour and photopic vision.

It also seems to be the last color I can perceive with my photopic vision ( it's as if I could see it with the corners of my eyes . ) It's quite an interesting feeling overall.
18.
The Purkinje shift is the relation between the absorption maximum of rhodopsin, reaching a maximum at about 500 nm, and that of the opsins in the long-wavelength and medium-wavelength cones that dominate in photopic vision, about 555 nm.
