Solar maculopathy(SM) appears as a consequence of direct or indirect visual exposure to sunlight, being caused by light radiation and its photochemical effects. It is characterized by a bilateral decrease in visual acuity(VA) accompanied by central scotoma, with the dominant eye being more commonly affected.  3, record 1, English, - solar%20maculopathy

The method by which incident radiation interacts with the medium to cause ionization may be direct or indirect. Electromagnetic radiations(X rays and gamma photons) are indirectly ionizing; that is, they give up their energy in various interactions with cellular molecules, and the energy is then utilized to produce a fast-moving charged particle such as an electron. It is the electron that then secondarily may react with a target molecule. Charged particles, in contrast, strike the tissue or medium and directly react with target molecules, such as oxygen or water. These particulate radiations are directly ionizing radiations.  1, record 6, English, - gamma%20photon
