Antibodies to human retinal antigens are present in blood serum from RP patients (10-12). One variant of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) involves sprouting of new blood vessels ...

Macular degeneration is the most common cause of age-related vision loss in older adults. In a healthy eye, light travels through the pupil and hits the retina, the inner back layer of your eye.

It typically starts at a younger age than age-related macular degeneration (AMD). MMD can lead to other eye issues, such as retinal detachment. Detecting it early can help prevent irreversible ...

Macular degeneration usually refers to the age-related degenerative changes in the retina that can result in loss of central vision. It is caused by abnormal blood vessel growth (a condition ...

What is macular degeneration? AMD is a chronic eye disease that affects the retina (the light-sensitive layer at the back of ...

A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) on January 31, 2025, in Volume 17, Issue 2, titled “Cysteinyl ...

Retinal neurodegenerative diseases, such as inherited retinal dystrophies, age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma and ...

Macular degeneration, particularly age-related macular degeneration, is a leading cause of vision loss worldwide. This condition affects the central part of the retina, known as the macula, which is ...

Photoreceptors, like polarized sensory neurons, are essential for light sensation and phototransduction, which are highly dependent on the photoreceptor cilium. Disruption of photoreceptor cilia has ...
