eyecro data to be presented at ARVO 2016 in Seattle


“Researchers have discovered a technique for directly reprogramming skin cells into light-sensing rod photoreceptors used for vision. The lab-made rods enabled blind mice to detect light after the cells were transplanted into the animals’ eyes. The work, funded by the National Eye Institute (NEI), published April 15 in Nature.” (Click here to read rest of article)
Macular Degeneration is the leading cause of blindness and vision loss in people over 50 –and with life expectancies well into the 80s, it is estimated that 1 and 3 elderly individuals will have to deal with this degenerative disease. The remedy? Monthly injections (via needle) into the back of the eye, where the disease…

A new Gene Therapy publication details the safety and biodistribution assessment of SPVN06, a mutation-independent gene therapy in development for rod–cone dystrophies (RCDs). These inherited retinal disorders are a leading cause of vision loss and can result from mutations in more than 100 different genes, which makes developing broadly applicable treatments challenging. SPVN06 is an…
