A bioengineered retinal implant is safe for use in humans and may be effective in treating vision loss caused by a type of macular degeneration that causes progressive blindness. There are ...

Her ocular history was positive for unspecified optic atrophy and peripheral branch retinal vein occlusion in the left eye 4 years prior, for which there was no definitive cause and no treatment.

This includes late-onset retinal degeneration, which affects peripheral vision; and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), where there is damage to the part of the retina responsible for our central ...

For example, late-onset retinal degeneration (L-ORD) affects mostly peripheral retina and, therefore, peripheral vision.
