New research in mice suggests that 'dormant' cone photoreceptors in the degenerating retina are not dormant at all, but continue to function, producing responses to light and driving retinal activity ...

JVCKENWOOD has developed a vision function detection apparatus that analyzes a test subject’s visual function based on their eye movements while observing a moving image on a display screen. The ...

Using microelectrodes, scientists could show that cells in the retina play different roles. The produce different signals, which is important for the processing of visual information. These ...
