Vision. Realignment of cones after cataract removal.

H S Smallman1, D I MacLeod, P Doyle.   

Abstract

Through unique observations of an adult case of bilateral congenital cataract removal, we have found evidence that retinal photoreceptors will swiftly realign towards the brightest regions in the pupils of the eye. Cones may be phototropic, actively orientating themselves towards light like sunflowers in a field.
