Question

if retinal detachment occurs in the macula lutea, one can predict that there would be a significant loss of ______.

Answer 1

The correct answer is color vision.
The macula lutea is an area near the center of the human's eye retina. It has an oval shape and is responsible for the high-resolution color vision we have under good light conditions. If the macula lutea is destroyed, due to macular degeneration or a retinal detachment, then this color vision is impaired.
