Note: The video above shows a three-dimensional rotating view of three different cell types in the retina. The Campana cell (center) is shown flanked by two other cell classes that it is similar to, a ...

A newly developed light-sensing protein called the MCO1 opsin restores vision in blind mice when attached to retina bipolar cells using gene therapy. The National Eye Institute, part of the National ...

Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (BDR) in Japan have deployed improved genetically modified human stem cell-derived retinal transplants to treat rats with retinitis ...

A newly developed light-sensing protein called the MCO1 opsin restores vision in blind mice when attached to retina bipolar cells using gene therapy, according to The National Eye Institute, which ...

Researchers led by Michiko Mandai at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (BDR) in Japan have used a genetic modification to improve human-derived retina transplants grown in the lab.

For decades, restoring sight after severe eye damage sat firmly in the realm of science fiction. Now a wave of converging ...

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 ...

Rhythmic electrical activity in the retina (known as pathological oscillations) has been observed in several eye diseases, including congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) and retinitis ...
