Methods: Monochromatic filters were chosen to represent the visible light spectrum, going from red to violet color, 440.5\u2013731 nm, and light transmittance from 19 to 89.17%. Two of the participants presented accommodative esotropia. The impact of each filter, differences, and similarities among them, were analyzed using non-parametric statistics. Results: There was an increase on the N75 and P100 latency of both eyes and a decrease was on the VEP amplitude. The neurasthenic (violet), omega (blue), and mu (green) filter had the biggest effects on the neural activity. Changes may primarily be attributable to transmittance (%) for blue-violet colors, wavelength (nm) for yellow-red colors, and a combination of both for the green color. No significant VEPs differences were seen in accommodative strabismic patients, which reflects the good integrity and functionality of their visual pathway. Conclusions: Monochromatic filters, influenced the axonal activation and the number of fibers that get connected after stimulating the visual pathway, as well as the time needed for the stimulus to reach the visual cortex and thalamus. Consequently, modulations to the neural activity could be due to the visual and non-visual pathway. Considering the different types of strabismus and amblyopia, and their cortical-visual adaptations, the effect of these wavelengths should be explored in other categories of visual dysfunctions, to understand the neurophysiology underlying the changes on neural activity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23115227","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,31]],"date-time":"2023-05-31T04:41:49Z","timestamp":1685508109000},"page":"5227","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The Impact of the Wavelength and Its Transmittance on the Visual Evoked Potentials, at Baseline, and under the Effect of Six Monochromatic Filters Used for Visual Treatments"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5103-082X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Danjela","family":"Ibrahimi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Medicina, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Quer\u00e9taro, Santiago de Quer\u00e9taro 76176, Mexico"},{"name":"Facultad de Ingenier\u00eda, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Quer\u00e9taro, Santiago de Quer\u00e9taro 76010, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eno\u00e9","family":"Cr\u00faz-Mart\u00ednez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital Infantil Telet\u00f3n de Oncolog\u00eda, Anillo Vial Junipero Serra 1999, Santiago de Quer\u00e9taro 76140, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Guillermo","family":"Valencia Luna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Metr\u00f3logo del Laboratorio de Propriedades \u00d3pticas de los Materiales de la Direcci\u00f3n \u00d3ptica y Radiometr\u00eda, del Centro Nacional de Metrolog\u00eda, El Marqu\u00e9s 76246, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-0789-3421","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Josu\u00e9","family":"Romero Turrubiates","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Psicolog\u00eda, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Quer\u00e9taro, Santiago de Quer\u00e9taro 76010, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8598-5600","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juvenal","family":"Rodr\u00edguez-Res\u00e9ndiz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Medicina, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Quer\u00e9taro, Santiago de Quer\u00e9taro 76176, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1283","DOI":"10.3109\/02699052.2014.915989","article-title":"Photosensitivity in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI): A retrospective analysis","volume":"28","author":"Truong","year":"2014","journal-title":"Brain Inj."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"299","DOI":"10.1097\/01.opx.0000216125.83236.af","article-title":"The Effect of Colored Lenses on the Visual Evoked Response in Children With Visual Stress","volume":"83","author":"Riddell","year":"2006","journal-title":"Optom.
