How it's used

This is a technical medical term used in clinical settings or when discussing eye health. While it is the standard term for the retina, most people will simply refer to it as part of the eye when talking casually about vision problems. It is rarely used in everyday conversation unless a specific diagnosis is being discussed.

Common mistake

Learners often confuse this with general eye terms like 眼球 or 眼底. Remember that this refers specifically to the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, not the entire organ.
