Explanation:
This sunlight can flood your retinas, overstimulating the rods and cones that sense light and causing them to release chemicals that can damage the retinas. This condition is known as solar retinopathy, and it can cause permanent eye damage.The ultraviolet light from the sun is quite powerful. If you've ever experienced a bad sunburn, you know what sunlight can do to your skin in just a short time if left unprotected. Your skin is much tougher than your eyes, and the delicate parts of your eyes can be damaged by the sun much more quickly. That's why it's a natural reaction to divert your eyes in bright sunlight.
