Scientists have identified never-before-seen cells in the human eye that could potentially help reverse vision loss caused by common diseases, such as macular degeneration. The researchers discovered ...

A first-in-human pilot trial suggests umbilical cord–derived mesenchymal stem cell eye drops may safely improve symptoms and inflammation in refractory dry eye, including Sjögren’s syndrome.

For the first time, an international research team led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has recorded a tiny mechanical "twitch" in living human and rodent eyes at the ...

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 ...

For patients with severe corneal injuries, blindness has often been seen as a life sentence. But a new eye stem cell transplant may change that. Scientists at Massachusetts Eye and Ear have ...

Researchers have identified a metabolically sensitive cell subtype in the eye's drainage system which shows early signs of ...

Dry eye disease happens when the lacrimal glands do not make enough tears, or the tears do not have the right balance of ingredients to protect the eye surface. Tears are not just “water”. They help ...

In advanced dry disease, a key problem is failure of retinal pigment epithelium, often shortened to RPE. These cells help ...

Transplanted autologous corneal stem cells successfully repaired corneal injuries in patients. Over 90% of patients achieved complete or partial success. The procedure proved safe with no serious ...
