The rods and cones in your eyes are responsible for helping you see, but what is responsible for helping them? Retinal pigment epithelium cells are their caretakers, but environmental, genetic and ...

Researchers at WashU Medicine have developed an experimental AI system designed to interpret 3D images of the eye’s retina (thin yellow layer, left) for disease diagnosis. Each 3D image of the retina ...

Non-invasive eye scans allow doctors a zoomed-in, three-dimensional look beneath the eye's surface without causing discomfort ...

Inside the University of Miami's newly opened 3D bioprinting lab, the future of medicine looks a lot like science fiction.

Foundation models for AI-powered eye care. This illustration shows how ophthalmic foundation models integrate multimodal data—including fundus images, optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans, and ...

A steroid alternative may offer a new way to treat dry eye by restoring the eye’s natural protective defenses.

Turns out we’re not all watching the same version of the world unfold, just continuously updating our own personal ...

A SIMPLE eye test could detect if you’re dangerously low in iron, research suggests. Experts have long warned that people ...

With the ease of online publishing, the number of journals has exploded, and with them the number of papers. It has gotten ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has already changed many aspects of medical imaging, but traditional ophthalmic AI systems are often built for a single disease, dataset, or task. That narrow design can ...

It’s long been accepted that the smoother the surface, the lower the aerodynamic drag. That turns out not always to be the case.

Researchers have been working for decades on so-called brain-computer interfaces to help people who suffer from paralysis, blindness, hearing loss, and more, regain function.
