Photoreceptors sense light. They are what allows you to see.
no. they are called eyes. photoreceptors are cells within the eye that respond to light such as cones and rods.
Light
The eyes are the primary photoreceptors in the human body. They contain specialized cells known as photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) that convert light into electrical signals that can be interpreted by the brain.
The retina in the eye contains millions of photoreceptors known as rods and cones. These photoreceptors are responsible for converting light into electrical signals that the brain can interpret as vision.

Light
The special sense that relies on photoreceptors is vision. Photoreceptors in the retina of the eye, called rods and cones, help convert light into electrical signals that the brain interprets as images.

Retina.
Photoreceptors can respond to light in milliseconds. Upon exposure to light, photoreceptors quickly undergo a series of biochemical reactions that lead to changes in their membrane potential, triggering neural signals to be sent to the brain.
