LifeSciencesWorld.comResearchers discover mechanism that helps humans see in bright and low light [NEWS] Ever wonder how your eyes adjust during a blackout? When we go from light to near total darkness, cells in the retina must quickly adjust. Vision scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have identified an intricate process that allows the human eye to adapt to darkness very quickly.
