Fundus reflectometry of the cat retina showed that under certain circumstances a rapid increase in density may follow intense bleaching exposures. The spectral characteristics of the density changes indicated that neither rhodopsin nor its bleach products could be responsible for this effect. The poor condition of the animals in which the phenomenon was observed and its conspicuous absence in the majority of the experimental runs suggested that the effect was associated with a process other than the resynthesis of rhodopsin. It was shown that an extrareceptoral event, spreading depression (SD) of the retina, is the most likely source of the rapid spectral change. The well-known tissue alterations associated with SD were induced in the retina independently of pigment density change. The resultant difference spectra resembled those produced when the rapid density increase occurred spontaneously. It seems likely that the abnormal physiological condition of those cats in which the phenomenon is more frequently observed primes the retina for the light-induced generation of spreading depression.
