Traditionally, colour information is assumed to be carried by neural channels in the parvocellular pathway and to be encoded in an opponent manner, while other, non-parvocellular, spectrally non-opponent channels are thought to play no part in colour vision. But is the parvocellular pathway the only way that colours can be discriminated in human vision? We studied two patients with cerebral achromatopsia, who lack conscious colour perception but are nevertheless able to make use of colour information. In particular, we investigated whether, in these patients, colour discrimination is mediated by the parvocellular pathway.
