Funduscopic examination of two young adults complaining of blurred vision revealed small symmetrical macular lesions suggestive of solar retinopathy. Although both patients had recently looked at the sun for less than one minute, it is common to look at the sun for longer periods (ie, sunsets) without incurring visual symptoms of retinal lesions. Our biophysical analysis revealed the important parameters of solar retinopathy and the minimum exposure to the sun that would produce such lesions. Under ideal optical conditions, solar retinopathy can occur following extremely short observations of the sun.
对两名主诉视力模糊的年轻成年人进行眼底检查，发现有小的对称性黄斑病变，提示为日光性视网膜病变。尽管两名患者近期直视太阳的时间均不足一分钟，但人们长时间直视太阳（如观看日落）却未出现视网膜病变的视觉症状是很常见的。我们的生物物理分析揭示了日光性视网膜病变的重要参数以及产生此类病变所需的最短日照时间。在理想的光学条件下，极短时间观察太阳后即可发生日光性视网膜病变。
