Abstract :
This paper presents the fine modeling and simulation of retinal rod cells under exposure to electromagnetic waves at power, Radio and microwave frequencies. The novelty lies in detailed modeling according to recent electron micrographs of the actual geometry of retinal cell. Local heat generation at different sites in the cell is shown for different frequencies.
