Wenzhou Medical University and collaborating institutions have identified a population of human neural retinal stem-like cells able to regenerate retinal tissue and support visual recovery. Vision ...

Cell replacement therapy offers new hope for millions of people affected by retinal degenerations (RDs)—a group of blinding conditions caused by the loss of light-sensing photoreceptor cells in the ...

A hybrid retinal implant using stem-cell-derived neurons and microelectrodes lowers activation thresholds and improves signal precision, offering a more natural interface for high-resolution vision ...

For individuals with inherited eye disorders such as retinitis pigmentosa or macular degeneration, the irreversible degeneration of the retina—a layer of photoreceptors at the back of the eye—can ...

Scientists at USC are launching a new trial to test a tiny stem cell implant that could restore vision in people with advanced dry macular degeneration. The hair-thin patch replaces damaged retinal ...

Ophthalmologists perform a dilated fundus examination to diagnose retinal tears. Dilating drops widen the pupil to allow ...

Scientists at the Jules Stein Eye Institute at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA have discovered that certain retinal cells can rewire themselves when vision begins to deteriorate in ...

What if eyes could use light to heal themselves? Drawing inspiration from how plants harness sunlight, researchers at the ...
