If the retina was damaged, then your eyesight gets poorer and poorer, until eventually you lose your eyesight, this could be permenant. Regular eye sight checks are recommended, every five years is best.

∙ 12y agoFirstly, the Retina of an eye is located at the back of our eye balls it is where the image is formed, then the Retina sends signal to the Optic Nerve and send the message to the brain then the brain will interpret the light that's been received by the retina and that's how our eyes works

What are the structures and fluids through which light passes as it travels from the cornea to the retina?
Cornea, aqueous humor, lens, vitreous humor, retina.
What happens if the light is focused behind or in front of the retina?
You will need glasses. If its focused in front of your retina then you're near-sighted (can't see close up). If its focused behind your retina then you're far-sighted (can't see far away)
What part of the eyeball function to refract light rays to form an image of the retina?
the cornea, which is a clear outer covering, refracts light onto the retina
How does light affect the pupil of the eye?
With high intensity light your pupil constricts. This happens to protect your retina from damage by light of high intensity.
Where in the retina is the light focused in farsightedness?
Before the retina; in the vitreous humor.
What happens to light when it hits objects so you can see colors?
After hitting the object light is reflected and then it passes through the biconvex lens of your eye and the real image is formed on your retina.
What do many animals have on the back of their eyeballs to help them see at night?
The tapetum helps them see at night. It is behind the retina. When light goes through the retina, it strikes the tapetum and passes back through the retina, illuminating the image on the retina a second time. This is why it looks like their eyes glow when light hits them at night. The light is escaping out through the pupil.
What is the light sensitive tissue in the eye?
The retina. This consists of layers of cells that detect light and colour and transmit information to the brain via the optic nerve.
What are the structures and fluids through which light passes as it travels from the cornea to the retina?
Cornea, aqueous humor, lens, vitreous humor, retina.
Where is the light focused when it enters your eye?
The retina
What is the layer of photoreceptors?
the retina contains the rods and cones which sense the amount of light and different colors respectively.
What happens when light hits foil?
It should reflect the light.
What happens when a ray of light hits a mirror?
The light hits the mirror and the light bounces off like a reflection
What happens if the light is focused behind or in front of the retina?
You will need glasses. If its focused in front of your retina then you're near-sighted (can't see close up). If its focused behind your retina then you're far-sighted (can't see far away)
What happens if the part of human eye that is sensitive to light were damaged?
Person how as this became totaly or partialy blindness. The name of the part how is sensitive to light is retina. The probably of damege on the retina increase in: diabetes high myopia all patology of the blood vessels
What happens to light when it hits?
it goes nowhere
Where does the lens on a pupil focus light?
Onto your retina. Onto your retina.
