Relative light sensitivities of four retinal hemi-fields for suppressing the synthesis of melatonin at night

The magnitude of the stimulus to the biological clock will depend upon the distribution of circadian phototransduction circuits across the retinae and the spatial distribution of luminous stimuli in the environment. The present study compared nocturnal melatonin suppression for light exposures to th...
