The job of the retina is to capture light that comes through the eye and change that light into an electrical signal that your brain interprets as an image. Proper retina function depends on each ...

The retina is a thin layer of cells lining the back part of the inside of your eye. These cells receive light, organize the information, and send it to your brain. The brain translates these ...

The researchers discovered the cells in the retina, a light-sensitive structure at the back of the eye that is vital for vision. The cells were found in donated samples of fetal tissue.

Maciej Wojtkowski confirms that this method makes it possible now to view the retina and choroid with high resolution at distinct depths in the frontal section. The eye only sometimes reveals ...

But Duan and Toma benefited from a new technique, using multiphoton microscopy, that Tyson Kim, MD, PhD, an assistant professor of ophthalmology, had developed to make 3-D images of retinal blood ...

A stroke in the eye occurs when blood flow to the retina is blocked. Treatment depends on the type of blockage and the severity of the damage. Early medical care improves outcomes. Blood vessels ...

The method, invented in 1991, offers a staggering amount of detail about the retina, a layer of tissue at the back of the eye critical to vision. “It’s not much thicker than a strand of hair ...
