Eye Sensitivity Increases In Dark Observed In Study
Researchers led by Selig Hecht of Creighton University report that eye sensitivity rises after entering a dark room, reversing after about 45 minutes and peaking at 5,000 to 10,800 times initial sensitivity. The change is linked to a reversible photochemical reaction in the retina involving a photosensitive pigment with two decomposition products. The findings, published in the Journal of General Physiology, note the adaptation is gradual and varies among individuals.
