There are about 4.5 to 5 million cone cells in the eye unevenly distributed in the eye.
Cone cells are
- Less sensitive to light
- Useful in normal light situations
- Nonconvergent
- Detect and distinguish between Red, Green, and Blue Color
- Useful for color vision
Now if only very small % of cone cells are missing, there may not be any dis-functionalities in the eye. But if large % of cells are missing, eye could miss out on any of the above functions.
