We have used recent measurements of mammalian cone light responses and voltage-gated currents to calculate cone ATP utilization and compare it to that of rods. The largest expenditure of ATP results from ion transport, particularly from removal of Na⁺ entering outer segment light-dependent channels and inner segment hyperpolarization-activated cycl...
