Researchers successfully pulled off the first eye stem cell transplants to help heal cornea damage, and the results speak for ...
A new stem cell therapy has repaired blinding damage to the cornea in 93% of patients in an early clinical trial. The cornea is the clear dome that covers the front of the eye and helps to focus light ...
A first-of-its-kind stem cell transplant has changed the life of a man who was left blind in one eye following a firework accident.
A type of eye injury that caused blindness and was previously believed to be irreversible was cured in human trials using ...
Researchers estimate that more than 10 million people worldwide live with corneal blindness caused by disease or injury to the eye’s cornea. Unilateral limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) is a type of ...
The study evaluated 14 patients that were treated with cultivated autologous limbal epithelial cells (CALEC) and followed ...
For the first time, researchers developed stem cell-derived pig retinal cells in comparison with human retinal cells, ...
Researchers developed pig retinal organoids similar to human ones, advancing stem cell-based vision restoration and enabling ...
The CALEC treatment, developed at the Mass Eye and Ear research centre, is an innovative procedure that involves the removal of stem cells from a healthy eye with a biopsy, expanding them into a ...
David Gamm, director of UW–Madison’s McPherson Eye Research Institute and professor of ophthalmology and visual sciences, says that stem cell replacement therapy using lab-grown photoreceptors is a ...
A new stem cell therapy has repaired blinding damage to the cornea in 93% of patients in an early clinical trial. However, severe injuries, such as those caused by chemical burns or infections ...
