Like rods, each cone cell has an outer segment, an inner segment, a cell body, and a synaptic terminal. The outer segment consists of the numerous membrane disks containing the photopigments. The inner segment contains the cell's endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, and mitochondria.

Cone cells are specialized photoreceptor cells in the retina responsible for color vision and work best in bright light. They contain key organelles like the nucleus, mitochondria, and photopigments (opsins) that are vital for their function. Together, cone cells and rod cells allow humans to perceive a wide range of colors and adjust to various light levels.
