Light receptors are found in the eye. There are two types of receptors; rods and cones. Rods produce the black and white pigments and the Cones produce the color pigments.
No, the lens of the eye does not contain light receptors. Light receptors are found in the retina, which is located at the back of the eye. The lens functions to focus light onto the retina for processing by the light receptors.
rods are our or dim light and peripheral vision receptors
No, auditory receptors do not detect light. Auditory receptors are sensory cells that respond to sound waves, which are pressure waves with frequencies between 16 hertz and 20,000 hertz. Light, on the other hand, is an electromagnetic wave with frequencies ranging from about 400 terahertz to 790 terahertz. Auditory receptors are located in the inner ear, in the basilar membrane of the organ of Corti, while light receptors are located in the retina of the eye. Therefore, auditory receptors and light receptors are different types of sensory cells that detect different types of stimuli.
The retina is the part of the eye that contains light receptors.
Our eyes have both black-and-white receptors, and color receptors. The black-and-white receptors work at low light levels; the color recepters require a higher light intensity.
Photoreceptors - rods and cones.

Rods
Photoreceptors - rods and cones.
Visual receptors are less sensitive in the light-adapted state. This is because when exposed to bright light, the photoreceptor cells become desensitized and require more light to respond.
The light receptors in the eye are called cones and rods. Cones are responsible for color vision and detailed vision in bright light, while rods are more sensitive to low light levels and are important for night vision.
