A Brighter Future for Retinal Implants Implants may be commonplace in only a couple of years. A Stem-Cell Therapy for Blindness Advanced Cell Technology will seek approval for human trials of its treatment for vision loss. Implantable Telescope for the Eye A new device may help restore sight for people with severe macular degeneration. Researchers stimulate the growth of new retinal cells in mice. Eye Implants to Fight Progressive Blindness A novel medical device could treat eye diseases like age-related macular degeneration. A snapshot of the retina could detect cell damage in the early stages of diabetes. Superdense arrays of electrodes will bring scientists closer to an artificial retina that approximates normal vision. [1]
