Researchers used human retinas grown in a petri dish to discover how an offshoot of vitamin A produces the specialised cells that allow us to see millions of colours, a talent that dogs, cats, and other mammals lack.
Washington [US], November 18 (ANI): A study led by the Cedars-Sinai Department of Neurosurgery has identified certain regions in the retina - the lining found in the back of the eye - that are more affected by Alzheimer's disease than other areas.
Seoul [South Korea], Aug 10 (ANI): Important findings that could potentially improve the performance of retinal prostheses creating an artificial vision for blind individuals have been reported by a team of Korean researchers.
