What is "macula"?
The macula, a small but critical region in the center of the retina, is responsible for central vision and visual acuity. It contains a high concentration of specialized photoreceptor cells called cones, which are responsible for color perception and detailed vision. The macula allows us to see fine details, read, recognize faces, and perform tasks that require sharp, focused vision. It plays a crucial role in our daily activities that require precise visual discrimination and clarity.
