👉 In electronics and optics, retinal cells are responsible for converting light into electrical signals. These cells are made up of a layer of proteins called photoreceptors (also known as rods or cones) that act like tiny microphones to pick up light waves. The information from these cells is transmitted through the optic nerve to the brain, where it is processed and interpreted by neurons. When light enters the eye, it interacts with the retinal cells in a process known as phototransduction. This
