Cone cells, or cones, are photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye that are responsible for color vision; they function best in relatively bright light, as opposed to rod cells that work better in dim light. Cone cells are densely packed in the fovea, which is responsible for sharp central vision (also called foveal vision). It is necessary in humans for reading, watching, driving, and any activity where visual detail is of primary importance. Cone cells gradually become sparser towards the periphery of the retina. They are also able to perceive finer detail and more rapid changes in images, because their response times to stimuli are faster than those of rods. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_cell)
