    Author: Aaltonen H, Aarnisalo E, Elenius V.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Res; 1984; 16(1-2):54-9. PubMed ID: 6610152.
    Abstract:
    Defective temporal integration for a foveally fixated 100' of arc red (660 nm) Btest flash presented on a 30 cd/m2 yellow ( Schott , OG 530) background was measured in subjects with deuteranopia , as well as in subjects with anomalous trichromacy of the deutan type. The mean integration time was 77 +/- 17 ms in 12 normal subjects but only 35 +/- 6, 46 +/- 11 Band 41 +/- 15 ms in respectively 6 subjects with deuteranopia , 7 with extreme deuteranomaly Band 9 with deuteranomaly . An increase in the test duration from 10 to 200 ms increased the mean relative sensitivity by 0.85 +/- 13 log units in the normal subjects compared with 0.45 +/- 0.05, 0.57 +/- 12 and 0.56 +/- 19 in subjects with deuteranopia , extreme deuteranomaly and deuteranomaly .
