I also tried to do it this way:

d$META <- sapply(seq_len(nrow(d)), function(rn) {
  unlist(sumz(as.matrix(d[,.(LCL,Retina)])[rn,], weights =
as.vector(d[,.(wl,wr)])[rn,],
              na.action=na.fail)["p"])
})

but again I am getting error:
Error in sumz(as.matrix(d[, .(LCL, Retina)])[rn, ], weights = as.vector(d[,  :
  Must have at least two valid p values

for this reference these are details about my data frame:
> head(d)
    chr    pos         gene_id                     LCL          Retina
