Persistent photoreceptor cells

…In the pineal gland of birds and reptiles, the outer segment of the sensory cells begins to degenerate, and the number of secretory granules with a diameter of about 100 nm increases in the cytoplasm. Such pineal sensory cells are called "residual photoreceptor cells." Mammalian pineal cells have already lost their outer segment and lost their photoreceptive ability, but in rodents, cilia develop and the outer segment structure begins to form after 1-2 weeks of age, but sooner or later they degenerate. …

*Some of the terminology that refers to "persistent photoreceptor cells" is listed below.
