Thanks to this tiny piece of tech, people with profound vision loss can now read, do cross word puzzles, and navigate public ...

An editorial published in the New England Journal of Medicine 1 referred to the Photovoltaic Retina Implant Microarray (PRIMA ...

Human vision relies on photoreceptor cells in the retina that react to visible light and trigger neurons in the optic nerve to send signals to the brain. Degradation of these photoreceptors is the ...

Researchers have successfully developed a novel drug to restore vision. The treatment method restores vision through retinal nerve regeneration. Vision is one of the most crucial human senses, yet ...

A new study suggests that never-seen-before stem cells in the human retina can restore vision in mice with a common eye disorder. But more work is needed to translate the treatment to people. When you ...

Scientists at UC Irvine have found a way to potentially reverse age-related vision loss by targeting the ELOVL2 “aging gene” and restoring vital fatty acids in the retina. Their experiments in mice ...

New computer modeling could help scientists better understand how the retina regenerates, opening the door to new treatments for vision loss, according to a study from the University of Surrey. The ...

A team from Fudan University, the Shanghai Institute of Technical Physics, the Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications and Shaoxin Laboratory, all in China, has developed a retinal ...

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 ...

Pixium Vision has sold the intellectual property and related assets for its Prima Retinal Implants to Science Corporation, a brain-computer interface (BCI) specialist. The deal comes several months ...
