Morphology
retinol = retina (opaque) = retin + ol
Although formed from the combining form 'retin-' plus the chemical suffix '-ol', the meaning 'a form of vitamin A' is not derivable by an average B1 learner from the parts.
Etymology
Retinol comes from the root retin-, from retina which is the part of the eye, plus the ending -ol which means 'alcohol' in chemistry. Because retinol is a form of vitamin A that works in the retina and helps vision and healthy skin, the name links the chemical to the eye and to its role in sight and skin care.
