Imagine slowly losing the center of your vision, like a camera lens fading to fog. That's what happens with geographic atrophy, a severe form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It's the ...

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common eye condition in older adults that can affect central vision. Geographic atrophy is an advanced form of AMD that causes permanent vision changes.

A two-square-millimeter chip has corrected the damage from advanced atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of irreversible blindness in adults. After being treated with an ...

Chinese researchers have reportedly made a breakthrough in artificial vision technology using a rare mineral called tellurium. This development could one day help restore sight to the blind, perhaps ...

Blinding diseases lead to permanent vision loss by damaging photoreceptor cells, which humans cannot naturally regenerate. While researchers are working on new methods to replace or regenerate these ...

A group of scientists restored vision in a monkey by using human stem cells to fix a hole in its retina. The research could open new doors for vision treatment in humans and other animals, too. A new ...

Researchers working as part of the University of Georgia's Regenerative Bioscience Center have developed a new way to identify and sort stem cells that may one day allow clinicians to restore vision ...

The Ocular Neurobiology laboratory at the Institute for Neurosciences, a joint center of Miguel Hernández University (UMH) in Elche and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), is participating ...
