Question

Why is it advisable not to look directly at the Sun? Please Give scientific reason for your answer

Answer 1

Hey there!

The sun's UV radiation damages the light receptors of the retina, so we should not look at the sun directly, but during sunrise and sunset the sunlight is coming at us horizontally rather than vertically. It has traveled many miles through the atmosphere to reach our eyes.

Hope this work for you.

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.
