Figure 1.

Light evokes vasodilation and vasoconstriction. A–F, IR-DIC images of arterioles at the vitreal surface of the retina. Shown are vessels before (A) and during (B) light-evoked vasodilation, before (C) and during (D) light-evoked constriction, and before (E) and during (F) light-evoked sphincter-like constriction. Scale bars, 10 μm. Arrowheads in all figures indicate the diameter of the vessel lumen. G, Time course of light-evoked vasodilation in six trials. H, Time course of vasodilation in a rapidly responding vessel (latency, <500 ms). I, Time course of vasoconstriction in five trials.
