Described as a kind of blue-green, the new color—named “olo”—can only be seen using lasers to manipulate certain ...

Gold particles could help reproduce the visual signals of damaged photoreceptor cells and restore vision, according to new ...

A team of Brown University researchers has identified a promising new approach that may one day help to restore vision in ...

The retina is home to two different kinds of light receptor cells—rods and cones. (Both are named after their relative shapes.) Cones work in bright light and register detail, while rods work in ...

A team of engineers, computer scientists and ophthalmologists at the University of California, Berkeley, working with a pair of colleagues at the University of Washington, has developed a technique ...

The reason lies within the eye. In the eye are light receptors called cones and rods. Cones help us distinguish different colors, while rods help us see in dim light. The number of cones and rods ...

Inside the retina, there are millions of special sense receptors called rods and cones. The rods see the shapes of things, picking out black, white and shades of grey, and the cones see the ...

Shihabeddin et al utilized single-cell RNA-Seq analysis of adult P23H zebrafish animals to identify transcription factors (e2fs, Prdm1a, Sp1) expressed selectively in neural progenitors and immature ...

Inside the retina, there are millions of special sense receptors called rods and cones. The rods see the shapes of things, picking out black, white and shades of grey… and the cones see colours ...
