retinal motion
Retinal motion refers to the movement of images across your retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of your eye. When your eyes or objects around you move, the images shift on your retina, helping your brain perceive motion and maintain awareness of your surroundings. Our visual system processes this shifting information to distinguish between real object movement and eye movements, allowing us to navigate safely and interact effectively with our environment. Essentially, retinal motion is how your eyes detect and interpret movement by tracking the movement of light images on the retina.
