| Young-Helmholtz theory of colour vision | A theory that there are three colour-perceiving elements in the retina: red, green, and blue. Perception of other colours arises from the combined stimulation of these elements; deficiency or absence of any one of these elements results in inability to perceive that colour and a misperception of any other colour of which it forms a part. Synonym: Helmholtz theory of colour vision. (05 Mar 2000) |
| low vision |
The partial loss of vision due to an eye injury or an acquired, congenital, or inherited eye disorder. It may result in a reduced ability to see clearly at far or near distances, or a reduced or partial field of vision. In older adults, it is often the result of macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, or diabetes. About one in every 20 Americans has low vision; a variety of specialized optical aids and services helps them continue to work, read, drive, use computers, and enjoy hobbies.
