Exposure to bright evening light linked to higher risk of age-related eye disease

Every sunrise and sunset sends the body a signal, keeping the circadian clock running on a roughly 24-hour cycle. This clock evolved so organisms could adapt to Earth’s daily rotation,

Lab-grown retinal cells show promise for new eye therapies

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have used induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to grow specialized blood vessel cells critical to retinal health for the first time. When injected into mouse

Live retinal imaging in mice reveals early immune cell activity before diabetes-related damage occurs

A new method of taking microscopic images of a live mouse’s retina through the eye allows the researchers clear, long-term observation of the living retina, down to the minute movements
