Light changes the membrane potential and ion balances of retinal rod disks.

S M Hughes, M D Brand.   

Abstract

Light stimulation of rod cells in vertebrate eyes may cause Ca2+ release from the intracellular disks. Radiolabelled tracers show that light causes a small hyperpolarization of intact disk stacks and redistribution of the ions Ca2+ and Cl-.
