Two research teams have developed very different ways of tackling retinitis pigmentosa, but both hold great promise

Object motion detector cell function relies on a unique interneuron and a special ‘sidekick’ recognition protein

In patients with keratoconus, CXL halts progression up to seven years on

Peripheral retinal lesions may predict diabetic patients’ risk of disease progression – and ultrawide field imaging could enable a better and earlier early diagnosis

Why is public awareness of dry eye so disturbingly low, and what can be done to change this?

The feedback and reactions to the first public presentation of Heidelberg Engineering’s new Cataract and Refractive Imaging Platform* at the ESCRS in Barcelona were extremely positive. Many leading ophthalmologists visited Heidelberg Engineering’s booth for a hands-on preview of the swept-source OCT Cataract and Refractive Imaging Platform and had the chance to experience its versatility.

Strength and durability in the real world

What if there was an imaging technique that could detect retinal disease processes before any structural damage had even occurred?

AMD is the leading cause of blindness in developed countries, and the third-leading cause in developing countries.

A novel signaling pathway that leads to choroidal neovascularization has been identified – with obvious therapeutic potential
