brain injury (TBI) induces complex molecular and cellular responses, often leading to vision deterioration and potential mortality. Current objective diagnostic methods are limited, necessitating the development of novel tools to assess disease severity. This review focuses on the retina, a readily approachable part of the central nervous system (CNS), as a potential indicator of TBI. We conduct a targeted database search and employ a blinded scoring system, incorporating both human and artificial intelligence (AI) assessments, to identify relevant articles. We then perform a detailed analysis to elucidate the molecular pathways and cellular changes in the retina following TBI. Recent findings highlight the involvement of key molecular markers, such as ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (IBA1), phosphorylated tau, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and various cytokines (IL-1\u03b2, IL-6, and TNF). Additionally, the roles of oxidative stress, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and blood\u2013retina barrier (BRB) disruption are explored. Based on these findings, we hypothesize that alterations in these molecular pathways and cellular components, particularly microglia, can serve as direct indicators of brain health and TBI severity. Recent technological advancements in retinal imaging now allow for a direct assessment of retinal cells, including microglia, and related inflammatory processes, facilitating the translation of these molecular findings into clinical practice. This review underscores the retina\u2019s potential as a non-invasive window into the molecular pathophysiology of TBI.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms26115171","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,28]],"date-time":"2025-05-28T06:30:26Z","timestamp":1748413826000},"page":"5171","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Eyes Are the Windows to the Soul: Reviewing the Possible Use of the Retina to Indicate Traumatic Brain Injury"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-6018-2841","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Loretta","family":"P\u00e9ntek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Szent\u00e1gothai Research Centre, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"Department of Neurobiology, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8121-2600","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gergely","family":"Szarka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Szent\u00e1gothai Research Centre, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"Department of Neurobiology, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"NEURON-066 Rethealthsi Research Group, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liliana","family":"Ross","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroscience, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB T2N 1N4, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bogl\u00e1rka","family":"Balogh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Szent\u00e1gothai Research Centre, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"Department of Neurobiology, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ildik\u00f3","family":"Telkes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical School, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7481-390X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"B\u00e9la","family":"V\u00f6lgyi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Szent\u00e1gothai Research Centre, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"Department of Neurobiology, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"NEURON-066 Rethealthsi Research Group, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"Medical School, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3353-4485","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tam\u00e1s","family":"Kov\u00e1cs-\u00d6ller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Szent\u00e1gothai Research Centre, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"Department of Neurobiology, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"NEURON-066 Rethealthsi Research Group, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"},{"name":"Medical School, University of P\u00e9cs, H-7624 P\u00e9cs, Hungary"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"National Institue of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (2025, March 13).
