New research digs into what's happening in the brain to keep your eyes focused on something you're reaching for, like a ground ball or grocery store item.

Growing rodent retinal neurons on a fractal-patterned electrode is a step toward a bionic eye, say researchers.

"If the goal is to treat blindness, we want to make sure that the retinal pigment epithelium cells... are still doing the job they're supposed to."

A thin pixelated chip implanted in the eye of people with macular degeneration may offer a way to restore functional vision, a new follow-up study shows.

Some people with "wet" age-related macular degeneration may one day be able to safely stop eye injection therapy without further vision loss.

"Armed with this data, we can now target new therapeutic approaches aimed at treating or potentially curing blindness," says Krzysztof Palczewski.

New findings strongly link cataract surgery with a lower risk of dementia among older people.

New research finds that as you shift your gaze, you experience brief periods where vision is supressed and you're essentially blind.

Nature’s ultra low-power, ultra-sensitive detector arrays, also known as our retinas, should be the envy of smartphones everywhere.
