Our brain and eyes can play tricks on us—not least when it comes to the expanding hole illusion. A new computational model ...

Cell replacement therapy offers a therapeutic approach for patients with advanced disease in which there has been loss of photoreceptors, RPE or retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Age-related macular ...

Look at the image above. Looks like you’re falling into it, doesn’t it? Like the darkness is approaching, threatening to overtake you if you stare too long. Why is that? A new study has an explanation ...

IN the light-adapted state, the receptive fields of retinal ganglion cells in the cat consist of excitatory and inhibitory areas. Thus predominantly excitatory and inhibitory pathways converging ...

However, the study provides limited new insights into the relationship between retinal lamination defects and overall retinal function. Neural lamination is a common feature of the central nervous ...

Treating the neurons and me — my mental states — in a synergistic way proved to speed up and enhance healing. It does for ...

In the tadpole stage, the eyes are lateral and all ganglion cells project axons to the contralateral side of the brain (retina is denoted by curves, ganglion cell axons are denoted by lines).

Investigators examined the connection between amblyopia, components of the metabolic syndrome and individual cardiometabolic ...

Researchers analyzed the genetic connection of retinal cells and several neuropsychiatric disorders. By combining different datasets, they found that schizophrenia risk genes were associated with ...

In this Healio Video Perspective from Hawaiian Eye 2025, Riad Sherif, MD, CEO of Oculis, discusses data on OCS-05 for the ...

In their last study, IIT's research group saw for the first time that Ziapin2 also acts in a similar manner on neurons in the inner retina unaffected ... sent by the ganglion cells to the brain ...
