Due to differences in visual systems, not all animals see the world in the same way.
Researchers have identified a common mechanism in both frontotemporal dementia and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis.
Retinal implants may improve image sharpness for those who have lost their vision due to retinitis pigmentosa, a new study reports.
Light sensitive cells in the fetal retina communicate as part of an interconnected network, giving the retina more light sensitivity during development that previously believed.
A new model of the retina can predict the outcome of defined perturbation.
The ability of retinal cells to "wall off" damage may be key to preserving vision.
Human trials are scheduled for a new eye technology that researchers say could detect Alzheimer's before symptoms appear.
Study revels M1 ganglion cell photoreceptors can tune into different ranges of light intensity.
Researchers discover a way doctors can detect early signs of Alzheimer's by looking at the back of patients' eyes.
Using human retinal tissue grown from stem cells, researchers shed light on how color vision develops. The study found thyroid hormones dictated whether the cells became blue, green or red photoreceptors.
Neural circuits within the retina are able to generate the information required to predict the movement and path of an object before visual signals leave the eye, researchers report.
A new study reports those who smoke 20 or more cigarettes a day have a reduced ability to discriminate contrast and colors compared to non smokers.
