Researchers use nanotechnology to create a light sensitive film that could form the basis for a prosthetic retina.
Researchers link microscopic spheres of calcium phosphate to the development of AMD.
A new study reports the dietary supplement Omega 3 does not slow cognitive decline in older people, especially if they already have preexisting cognitive problems.
Researchers investigate the link between cognitive function and levels of a vital eye pigment linked to diet.
A new study reports L-DOPA may be able to delay or prevent macular degeneration associated with aging.
A new study could help explain why our peripheral vision is so poor.
According to a new study, patients with high risk macular degeneration showed improvement when they were treated with a high dose statin.
A new study reports amyloid beta proteins are able to accumulate in the retina and damage it, which may result in age related macular degeneration in older people.
A new study reveals a considerable link between three common eye diseases and an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. Researchers believe their findings could help physicians better detect those at risk of developing dementia.
Following a Mediterranean diet with greater adherence was linked to the lowest risk of cognitive impairment. High fish and vegetable consumption appeared to have the greatest protective effect against cognitive decline.
Exposing retinal pigment epithelium cells in mouse models to amyloid-beta resulted in retinal pathologies similar to those seen in human age-related macular degeneration.
Fluoxetine, the antidepressant commonly known as Prozac, may be beneficial for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration. Researchers found Prozac significantly slowed the rate at which people over 50 developed AMD.
