Central serous retinopathy and macular degeneration both affect the retinas in your eyes, but one does not lead to the other. They share similar symptoms but have differing causes and risk factors.

Scientists have identified never-before-seen cells in the human eye that could potentially help reverse vision loss caused by common diseases, such as macular degeneration. The researchers discovered ...

Common condition causing vision loss affects among older adults Lifestyle choices like diet and smoking also play a role Macular degeneration leads to blurred or distorted vision While vision loss is ...

This proposal will develop a cell-based therapy that can restore vision in retinal degeneration associated blindness such as Stargardt disease and age-related macular degeneration. Chemically induced ...

A new study suggests that never-seen-before stem cells in the human retina can restore vision in mice with a common eye disorder. But more work is needed to translate the treatment to people.

And so I would say that the development and FDA approval of Luxturna's gene therapy for RPE65 associated retinal degenerations is absolutely the biggest breakthrough, at least in my part of the ...

Macular edema is swelling in the eye's retina that causes blurry vision but can progress to more serious vision loss. The most common condition associated with macular edema is diabetic retinopathy, ...

Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) occurs when the vitreous—a gel-like fluid in the eye—detaches from the retina. This results in eye floaters ... in the corners of your eyes and appear in your ...
