  1. The sensory receptors or neurons called the rods and the cones are located in the retina.
  2. Rods contain rhodopsin pigment and are associated with the scotopic vision of the eye i.e. vision under low light.
  3. Cones contain iodopsin and some other pigments too. These cells are associated with daylight vision and color vision of the eyes.
