OCU410ST employs an adeno-associated virus platform for retinal delivery of the RORA gene, targeting Stargardt disease pathways. The phase 2/3 trial will enroll 51 participants, with primary and ...

MONDAY, June 2, 2025 (HealthDay News) -- For patients with center-involved diabetic macular edema (CI-DME), lamivudine improves visual acuity, according to a study published online May 27 in Med.

The distribution and types of photoreceptors, lens structures, and even eye shapes vary dramatically across species, resulting in fundamentally different visual experiences. These adaptations reflect ...

First, a brief refresher on some elementary biology. The human eye senses light and color thanks to the millions of rods and cones located in the retina.

Ophthalmic electrophysiology is crucial for evaluating and managing inflammatory disorders of the retina and optic nerve. It complements the standard clinical assessments of visual acuity, color ...

Opthea's sozinibercept Phase 2b study shows promising visual acuity gains in wet AMD patients versus ranibizumab alone.

Researchers included 103 patients (average age, 30 years) with cone dystrophy (n=34) or cone-rod dystrophy (n=69) in a retrospective investigation performed at a single center to evaluated whether ...

Patients with a foveal bulge had significantly enhanced visual acuity if they also had resolved diabetic macular edema (DME) or retinal vein occlusion (RVO).

The fovea's cone photoreceptors enable high-acuity vision, with individual variations in cone density affecting visual resolution. Eye movements are calibrated to optimize cone sampling, enhancing ...

The manuscript by Witten et al., titled "Sub-cone visual resolution by active, adaptive sampling in the human foveola," aims to investigate the link between acuity thresholds (and hyperacuity) and ...
