Vision is not one thing • Colour • Depth • Motion • Form • Detection • Resolution • Recognition
Two systems • Central - cones form, detail, colour, high contrast (daylight), static images • Peripheral - rods motion, depth, low contrast (night vision), locating objects in space
Aspects related to visual abilities • Type • Degree • Onset • Prognosis
