Yale scientists found a hidden network inside the eye

Yale researchers have identified a hidden network of electrical connections between bipolar cells in the retina. This discovery suggests that visual channels are not independent but cooperate to enhance weak signals, improving vision in low-light conditions.
A new study from Yale School of Medicine (YSM) suggests that the eye processes visual information in a far more connected way than scientists had believed. The findings challenge a long standing view of how visual signals travel through the retina and may help explain how we detect faint objects or see in low light.
