Circadian Rhythms Explained

Discover how specific neurons in our eyes, particularly the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, play a crucial role in regulating our circadian rhythms. Low solar angle sunlight—experienced during morning and evening—serves as an optimal stimulus for these cells, enhancing mood, focus, and sleep patterns. The fascinating interplay between light wavelengths and our perception reveals the complexity of human vision and its impact on our daily lives.
