Background: A concept explaining retinal visional perception is worked out allowing comprehension of retinal vision in the context of physics and morphology. In particular, color vision and its discriminating facets appear to become transparent. Methods: standing wave analysis (SWA) for the energetic values of standing waves within the discs of the photoreceptors produced by different wavelengths generates color-identifying patterns. Results: The authors provide evidence that the human eye is able to identify an unlimited number of colors by analyzing directly standing waves produced by reflection on Bruch’s membrane. Colorgrams can be generated identifying every color throughout the whole spectrum. Color vision defects are understood by defined norm-deviations of the outer segment of rod and cones. The color vision defects too can be identified by specific colorgram patterns. Conclusions: Energetic analysis of the standing wave leaves no need for the three visual pigments theory of Young–Helmholtz. Retinal inversion is the morphological prerequisite for cones and rods to explain the physical findings of this thesis.
