Retina burns, also known as solar retinopathy, are a type of eye injury caused by looking at the sun or other bright sources of light. The retina, the thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye responsible for transmitting visual information to the brain, can be damaged by the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays. Retina burns are not always immediately noticeable and can occur without any pain or discomfort, making them a serious threat to eye health.
