Photoreceptor Adaptation

Photoreceptor Adaptation is a physiological mechanism in visual adaptation whereby individual photoreceptor cells adjust their sensitivity to light in response to changes in ambient illumination, enabling the visual system to maintain optimal responsiveness across varying light intensities.
