A new study published in PLoS One is the first of its kind to systematically describe and quantify the difference between measured curvature and actual retinal contour of the eye using optical ...

Los Angeles – New evidence from the University of Southern California suggests that there may be dedicated cells in the retina that help compile small bits of information in order to recognize objects ...

If you wanted to design the most perfect, low-energy, light-detecting device for a future camera or a prosthetic retina, you'd reach for something called 'efficient coding theory,' to set out the ...

The retina is the innermost layer of the eye, and it features many light-sensitive photoreceptor cells. These cells detect light and convert it into electrical signals, which travel through the optic ...

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 signals ...

Retinal tear treatment options include laser therapy, which is known as photocoagulation, and freezing therapy, known as cryopexy, to seal the injury. Both are safe and effective options. The retina, ...
