Gene therapy with voretigene neparvovec-rzyl partially restores geniculostriate pathway function in LCA2 patients, improving visual processing. Initial LCA2 pathology shifts visual processing from the ...

Vision is one of the most complex functions of our brain and requires a seamless interaction between many different brain structures to decode shapes, colours, depths, and movements and turn them into ...

King's College London researchers have shown that the brain chemical GABA regulates activity in the retina of the eye in autistic and non-autistic individuals differently. Autistic people have larger ...

Share on Pinterest New research involving cones and rods in the retina could lead to new treatments for vision loss. Gregory Adams/Getty Images Cone photoreceptors in retinal degeneration have been ...

The human brain builds mental representations of the world based on the signals and information detected via the human senses. While we perceive simultaneously occurring sensory stimuli as being ...

Loss of the TRPM1 ion channel in retinal ON bipolar cells disrupts communication with AII amacrine cells, causing anti-phase oscillations in retinal ganglion cells and structural remodeling of rod ...

New research in mice suggests that 'dormant' cone photoreceptors in the degenerating retina are not dormant at all, but continue to function, producing responses to light and driving retinal activity ...

An intravitreal ranibizumab injection was able to improve retinal sensitivity and thickness along with improving visual acuity. Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) can affect people aged 40 years and ...

Researchers found that the distance the eye travels during a rapid gaze shift changes post-saccadic visual sensitivity by altering the spatial-frequency information carried by retinal luminance ...
