Optogenetic Therapies
In hereditary retinal diseases (such as advanced-stage Retinitis Pigmentosa), the primary light-sensing cells, the photoreceptors (rods and cones), completely die over…
Gene Therapies
In the nucleus of every cell in the human body lies a manual that determines how that cell works, which proteins it will produce, and how it will survive: the DNA…

Vision Rehabilitation with Microperimetry (Biofeedback Training)
When the macular tissue responsible for central vision dies due to disease or trauma, it may not always be possible to fully revitalize those cells with modern…
Age-Related Cataracts
The human eye functions similarly to a perfect camera. Right behind the iris (the colored part of our eye), there is an entirely transparent, flexible, and crystalline…
Childhood Cataracts
In a healthy eye, the "natural intraocular lens" located right behind the iris refracts incoming light rays so they fall clearly onto the retina. To perform this…
Traumatic Cataracts
In a healthy eye, the natural intraocular lens located right behind the iris refracts light and focuses it onto the retina. This lens is protected within a transparent…
Secondary Intraocular Lens Applications (Scleral-Sutured)
In a standard cataract surgery (Primary Lens Application), the opaque natural lens is cleared using ultrasonic waves, but the outer membrane (capsule) is left in place…
Multifocal Intraocular Lens Applications (Distance, Intermediate, and Near Vision)
In youth, the natural lens inside our eye acts like an autofocus motor. When we look at distance, near, or intermediate ranges, it instantly changes shape (flexes) to…
