In a pioneering study, stem-cell-derived corneal implants improve sight for patients with severe vision impairment, offering a potential breakthrough for treating limbal stem cell deficiency.

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 ...

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

For decades, restoring sight after severe eye damage sat firmly in the realm of science fiction. Now a wave of converging advances, from gene editing and stem cells to microchips and laser-based ...

Within a month of the treatment, Tyler woke up unable to see in one eye—her retina had detached, a doctor would confirm. Soon ...

Market is poised for steady growth due to rising prevalence of corneal disorders, adoption of advanced therapies, and increasing awareness of ocular health. PED, a rare ocular condition, requires ...

Scientists have successfully used human stem cells to patch a hole in a monkey’s retina, restoring the primate’s vision and marking a successful step forward in the quest to treat age-related vision ...
