Millions of people suffer from retinal disorders, such as macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. A new study suggests that injecting gold nanoparticles into the retina and stimulating ...

"Our findings reinforce the crucial role of metal ions and oxidative stress in AMD and suggest that Telomir-1 could provide a breakthrough approach to protecting retinal cells from degeneration ...

Disruption of photoreceptor cilia has been implicated in a variety of retinal diseases, collectively called retinociliopathies, such as Leber congenital amaurosis and retinopathy of prematurity.

Reporting on in vitro experiments and then on tests in mice with retinal degeneration—a model of retinitis pigmentosa (RP), the team found that the hyaluronic acid (HA)-based hydrogel ...

Gregory Adams/Getty Images Cone photoreceptors in retinal degeneration have been thought to be dormant However, new research suggests cone photoreceptors in a degenerating retina may continue ...

Almost half the time atrophic retinal holes are associated with some amount of lattice degeneration, a condition where a part of the retina (usually a peripheral part) becomes thin. For small ...
