Researchers have developed eye drops that extend vision in animal models of a group of inherited diseases that lead to progressive vision loss in humans, known as retinitis pigmentosa. Researchers at ...

A group of scientists restored vision in a monkey by using human stem cells to fix a hole in its retina. The research could open new doors for vision treatment in humans and other animals, too. A new ...

Human vision relies on photoreceptor cells in the retina that react to visible light and trigger neurons in the optic nerve to send signals to the brain. Degradation of these photoreceptors is the ...

Vision is one of the most fascinating abilities in the animal kingdom. From birds that can spot prey miles away to sea creatures that see light we cannot even imagine, animals experience the world ...

Scientists have devised a new video system that reveals how animals see color, and us. By Emily Anthes Is the sky truly blue? Forget cerulean — a bright, clear sky is actually dominated by ultraviolet ...

Apple snails can fully regrow their eyes, and their genes and eye structures are strikingly similar to humans. Scientists mapped the regeneration process and used CRISPR to identify genes, including ...
