Which part of the body is the retina found?

The most prevalent photoreceptor cells are the cone cells. You can remember this by cone cells help with clarity, color and central vision. It is this part of the retina that is used to read, recognize faces or for driving. Sometimes it is called the macula lutea which means "yellow spot."
