Layer of nerve tissue made up of sensory neurons that respond to light?

The retina is the layer of nerve tissue in the back of the eye that contains sensory neurons called photoreceptors. These photoreceptors, specifically rods and cones, respond to light and convert it into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve, allowing us to perceive visual information.
