NASA sees into the eye of a monster storm on Saturn
NASA's Cassini spacecraft has seen something never before seen on another planet - a hurricane-like storm at Saturn's south pole with a well-developed eye, ringed by towering clouds. view more (2006-11-10)
U finds treatment that significantly slows progression of eye damage in persons with type 1 diabetes
University of Minnesota Medical School researcher Michael Mauer, M.D., has found a treatment that significantly slows the progression of eye injury in people with type 1 diabetes, a common complication caused by this disease. view more (2009-07-02)
'Fluorescent' cells give early warning for eye disease
Scientists at the University of Michigan have shown that their new metabolic imaging instrument can accurately detect eye disease at a very early stage. view more (2008-02-25)
Eye-staining technique offers early detection for dry eye syndrome
Lissamine green sounds like the latest cleaning sensation being hawked on television and probably not something you would want to get in your eyes. view more (2007-08-20)
Data mining detects signs of Lou Gehrig's disease in gene carriers long before symptoms appear
Inspired by the use of microarray chips that look for gene combinations, psychologists are using "pattern array" software to spot movements in rats that might help them predict diseases such as Lou Gehrig's syndrome. view more (2008-08-04)
Promising Drug Combination May Help Those with Ocular Melanoma that has Spread
A combination of two drugs shows promise in treating a rare and therapy-resistant type of melanoma that originates in the eye and spreads to other organs, according to a new study led by Duke University Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers. view more (2007-09-05)
A protein in the eye may prevent immune response and protect eyes from disease
Scientists at The Schepens Eye Research Institute have discovered that a protein known as F4/80 found on immune cells in the eye and other parts of the body may have a function in the regulation of the body's immune response and protect delicate tissues that cannot survive the "inflammation" inherent in full-blown immunity. view more (2005-06-22)
Drug treatment slows macular vision loss in diabetics
A drug commonly used to slow the loss of central vision has shown promise in stemming a common precursor of blindness in diabetics, which involves the same central light-sensitive area of retina, Johns Hopkins Wilmer Eye Institute scientists report. view more (2006-12-18)
Eye blood vessel width may indicate coronary heart death risk
The calibre of the small veins and arteries in the eye may be a good indicator of a middle aged person's chances of dying from coronary heart disease, suggests research published ahead of print in Heart. view more (2006-07-13)
Neural stem cell gene plays crucial role in eye development
Scientists at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have demonstrated that normal development of the eye requires the right amount of a neural stem cell gene be expressed at the right time and place. view more (2006-05-16)

Adult bone marrow stem cells may help cure certain genetic eye diseases, according to UC researchers. view more (2007-05-11)
The brain 'joins the dots' when drawing a cartoon face from memory
In a study by Miall, Gowen and Tchalenko published by Elsevier, in the March issue of Cortex, a brain scanner was used to record the brain's activity in each stage of the process of drawing faces. view more (2009-03-19)
Glaucoma treatment time and costs increase as disease progresses
Delaying the progression of the eye disease glaucoma from advancing to later stages is associated with lower cost of care, according to a study in the January issue of Archives of Ophthalmology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals. view more (2006-01-10)
Results with newer bladeless LASIK equivalent to standard microkeratome LASIK
A Mayo Clinic study comparing femtosecond (bladeless) and mechanical microkeratome LASIK surgeries has found equal results from both types six months post-surgery, using a variety of vision and eye health measurements. view more (2006-05-04)
NYU Researchers id new class of photoreceptors,pointing to new ways sights-and smells-are regulated
The identification of a new class of photoreceptors in the retina of fruit flies sheds light on the regulation of the pigments of the eye that confer color vision, researchers at New York University's Center for Developmental Genetics report in a new study appearing in the Public Library of Science's journal, PloS Biology. view more (2008-04-22)
Defective movement of cell's power plants implicated in commom inherited neurological disorder
Contrary to previous thinking, the inefficient movement of cell's "power plants" -- the mitochondria -- within a cell, rather than their low energy production, may be a contributing factor in the development of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), new research shows. view more (2007-01-17)
