Although single cone receptors have been imaged , to our knowledge there has been no observation of rods in the living normal eye. Using an adaptive optics ophthalmoscope and post processing, evidence of a rod mosaic was observed at 5° and 10° eccentricities in the horizontal temporal retina. For four normal human subjects, small structures were observed between the larger cones and were observed repeatedly at the same locations on different days, and with varying wavelengths. Image analysis gave spacings that agree well with rod measurements from histological data.
虽然已经对单个视锥细胞进行了成像，但据我们所知，在正常活体眼中还没有观察到视杆细胞。使用自适应光学眼底镜和后处理技术，在水平颞视网膜的 5°和 10°偏心率处观察到了视杆细胞马赛克的证据。对于四个正常的人类受试者，在较大的视锥细胞之间观察到了较小的结构，并且在不同的日子、不同的波长下，在相同的位置上可以重复观察到这些结构。图像分析给出的间距与组织学数据中的视杆细胞测量值非常吻合。
