Less than 30% of people with certain genetic variants go blind, despite the faulty genes previously being thought to cause ...

The study focused on inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs), a group of genetic diseases that lead to progressive vision loss ...

For generations, adults with amblyopia were told their vision loss was permanent, a childhood problem that medicine could not ...

A new study challenges what's long been assumed about genetic variants thought to always cause inherited blindness.

Inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs) were found by Mass Eye and Ear researchers to occur in only 28% of people who carry IRD genetic ...

Neural and computational evidence reveals that real-world size is a temporally late, semantically grounded, and hierarchically stable dimension of object representation in both human brains and ...

New research finds that brain development is not linear. There are distinct phases with unique characteristics.

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS, President Lee Ho Seong) has developed a retina-mimicking eye phantom* that faithfully replicates the structural layers and microvascular ...

Abstract: The mouse retina serves as a critical model for studying human eye diseases. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has rapidly advanced as a technique for retinal imaging, with OCT angiography ...

In this important paper, the authors use single-cell RNA sequencing to understand post-mitotic cone and rod developmental states and identify cone-specific features that contribute to retinoblastoma ...

(A) Bright-field images of human ROs at D7 after the application of different concentrations of sodium iodate (0, 0.1, 1 and 10 mM). (B) Representative confocal images of TUNEL apoptosis staining of ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by Bronwyn K Irving, Valeria Chichagova, and Carolina Gándara. Photoreceptor outer segments (POS) are essential for vision, and their dysfunction ...
