Using data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System, researchers investigated the prevalence of pentosan polysulfate sodium–associated retinal disorders. Results of a disproportionality analysis ...

Women who had preeclampsia during pregnancy have a significantly higher risk for various retinal disorders than women who did not have preeclampsia, according to a study published online December 2 ...

Engineers and neuroscientists have demonstrated for the first time that the cells in the retina carry out key processing tasks. This could pave the way for improving retinal implants and therefore 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 ...

In a genetic association study, investigators integrated data from genome-wide association studies of various disorders with retinal transcriptomic data. Findings revealed that the polygenic risk of ...

Up to now, it was thought that the function of these retinal cells, or photoreceptors, was mainly to convert light into electrical signals, from which the brain can interpret images. However, the new ...

In a study published in the journal ACS Nano and supported by the National Institutes of Health, the research team showed that nanoparticles injected into the retina can successfully stimulate the ...

The UAB Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences hosted its 26th Annual Research Symposium on Friday, June 13, 2025, at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens, drawing together faculty, trainees, ...

New research has found that the endothelial cell-specific A disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 10 (ADAM10) regulates abnormal blood vessel growth in the damaged retina, which ...
