Sense of sight: part two. Seeing in colour, detail and depth.
This article is the second in a three-part series on the sense of sight. It forms part of a larger series on the special senses. The first article on sight examined the structures of the eye, the visual pathway and various disorders of the eye. This second article explores how the eye sees colour, detail and depth.
