What Neural impulses are transmitted to bipolar cells when light energy enters the eye and triggers in the rods and cones?

When light energy enters the eye and triggers phototransduction in rods and cones, it causes a hyperpolarization of these photoreceptor cells. This change in membrane potential leads to a decrease in the release of the neurotransmitter glutamate. As a result, bipolar cells, which are influenced by the levels of glutamate, either depolarize or hyperpolarize depending on whether they are ON or OFF bipolar cells, ultimately transmitting neural impulses to ganglion cells and onward to the brain.
