Rods and cones are located in the retina of the eye. There are more rods than cones, and rods are involved with seeing at night or in low light situations.

in the eye, like by the retina.

the retina is what causes you to see. the rods and cones are near there to give your vision color.

Which parts of the eye perceive peripheral and twilight vision?

Vision is sensed by rods and cones. Cones are more centrally located. The cones sense color. As you move outward from the cones there are an increasing number of rods with most at the perimeter (outside edge) of the field of vision. Rods only sense black and white, but are more sensitive to light than cones. So, the rods are the parts of the eye that perceives peripheral and low light. If in a dark room try looking at the corner of your eye to make thing out.


Where are the light receptors located in the eye?

Light receptors are located in retina of eye ball. They are rods and cones. Rods are for night vision and cones for color vision. Retina is innermost layer in an eye in posterior compartment. Inside it, is vitreous gel. It is a part of brain and gets separate blood supply from branch of internal carotid artery. They are present in large number in fovea centralis. They are absent, where the optic nerve leaves the eye ball. That creates the 'blind spot' in visual area.
