Notes
Wikipedia's article on sungazing, consulted 2026-08-11. A perpetually community-edited reference page rather than a peer-reviewed publication; used here for William Horatio Bates's early twentieth century sun exposure method, the 1967 British Medical Journal report on its results, and the retina's lack of pain receptors, matters the article states plainly rather than disputes.
