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.
Where objects appear in a person's visual field can affect the ability to determine what the object is, researchers say.
A new study describes the activity of retinal neurons as they deliver visual information to the thalamus, an area of the brain implicated in image processing.
Researchers say a new retinal imaging test could be a reliable tool for measuring the progression of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's. The study reports the tool can detect drusen, which is often higher in those with AD.
A new model of the retina can predict the outcome of defined perturbation.
Researchers report persistent psychological stress can contribute to the development and progression of vision loss.
According to researchers, a hand held device that records electrical activity from the retina may be a useful tool in diagnosis schizophrenia.
Researchers use coherent control to control the function of a living cell.
Researchers report visual features modulated by the optokinetic reflex are encoded in the retina.
Study revels M1 ganglion cell photoreceptors can tune into different ranges of light intensity.
A new study reports photoreceptors in the retina are sensitive to colors corresponding to their visual pigments.
Researchers report a non-invasive retina test could help to accurately diagnose frontotemporal degeneration.
