New research reveals that the loss of a single ion channel, TRPM1, is enough to produce persistent rhythmic oscillations in ...

In a first-in-human phase 1/2a clinical trial, researchers used adult stem cells to help restore vision in people with age-related macular degeneration. In the United States, age-related macular degen ...

Rhythmic electrical activity in the retina (known as pathological oscillations) has been observed in several eye diseases, ...

Scientists have found a way to use nanotechnology to create a 3D 'scaffold' to grow cells from the retina -- paving the way for potential new ways of treating a common cause of blindness. Scientists ...

The trial is a phase 1/2 open-label, ascending-dose study of the safety and efficacy of OPGx-LCA5. Recently, the company ...

MeiraGTx is cashing in on a gene therapy that restored vision to 11 children who were born legally blind, licensing the ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. This piece is part of a series dedicated to the eye and improvements in restoring vision. In 1999, I defined ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. This piece is part of a series dedicated to the eye, and it marks the first of a three-part series on dry ...

This stunning image may look like a particularly lively Jackson Pollock painting, but it’s actually an example of a new cell imaging technique. The subject? A human retina. In fluorescence microscopy, ...

Researchers have identified distinct differences among the cells comprising a tissue in the retina that is vital to human visual perception. The scientists from the National Eye Institute (NEI) ...

Precise Bio has reported the first successful human implantation of its 3D-printed cornea implant, constructed of functional ...
