These tests provide images of fluid leaking from damaged or atypical retinal blood vessels, and may reveal: In addition to these tests, doctors may also order further tests to identify the ...

"This is the first time anyone has seen retinal neurons using direct contact with blood vessels as a way of guiding them to form these precise 3-D lattices," said Xin Duan, PhD, an associate ...

This is the first time anyone has seen retinal neurons using direct contact with blood vessels as a way of guiding them to form these precise 3-D lattices. This brings us closer to the possibility ...

Researchers are planning future studies on HIF, the breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier and 32-134D, and hope to conduct clinical studies of 32-134D in patients with diabetic retinopathy.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetes that affects the retina lining the inner eye. The condition can result in changes to blood vessels in the eye, which may damage the ...

It moves through your bloodstream to your retina. A special camera takes pictures of your eye to show which blood vessels are blocked. Optical coherence tomography. You get drops to dilate your ...
