Exposure to bright light can indeed affect night vision, but the extent to which red light impacts it can be different. Human eyes adapt to low light through a process called dark adaptation, which involves both the pupils dilating and the photoreceptor cells in the retina adjusting. This process can take around 20 to 30 […]
