    The retina is a light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye that converts light into nerve signals, which are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve. It's composed of various layers, including photoreceptor cells (rods and cones), bipolar cells, and ganglion cells. The retina allows us to see in low light, perceive color, and see sharp details, particularly in the macula, the central part of the retina.
