Features of Visual Dysfunctions in Patients with Primary Hypothyroidism and Thyrotoxicosis by V. G. Likhvantseva, V. N. Trubilin, E. V. Korosteleva, S. G. Kapkova, V. A. Vygodin

“…The pattern of photosensitivity disorders, the topography of the location of the loci of local defects revealed by the short-wave infrared perimetry, indicate that the earliest signs of optical neuropathy are manifested at the level of photoreceptors — selectively in the S-cones. Decreased sensitivity to blue stimulus (440 nm) refers to an acquired color anomaly called tritanopia; which can be present with high visual function, is most often associated with a decrease in the number of S-cones and a deficiency of retinol (the source of cyanolab synthesis).…”
