What is picture of the retina?

The retina is the layer of tissue at the back of the eye that senses light and sends signals to the brain. It is responsible for capturing images we see and transmitting them to the brain via the optic nerve. The retina contains millions of photoreceptor cells called rods and cones that convert light energy into electrical signals that the brain can interpret. The picture of the retina shows the different layers of cells and structures that make up the retina, including the photoreceptor layer, the bipolar cells, the ganglion cells, and the optic nerve. This image can be used to diagnose various eye conditions and diseases, such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachment. It may also be used to monitor the progression of these conditions over time and evaluate the effectiveness of treatment.
