Saving eyesight using robots and stem cells

Age-related macular degeneration or AMD is an eye condition that affects millions of people around the world. In the UK, it is the biggest cause of sight loss. At King's College London and Moorfields Eye Hospital, scientists are developing a new treatment that could help people to see again by implanting stem cell patches into their retinas. A trial has already been successfully tested on two patients, both of whom went from not being able to read at all, even with glasses, to reading 60-80 words per minute with normal reading glasses.

Nice work. Hoping to see this in the clinic soon .

[@lightliz7834]

Will this treatment be used for vision loss due to advanced glaucoma? I am a patient at Moorfields Eye hospital, have been for over 30 years. When will this be available at Moorfields. It is currently January 2024

My fiancé is blind due to retinal scarring how do I go about getting him this treatment

[@james575730]

Try calling a stemcell clinic outside the us, there is a stemcell specailist with a clinic in California, she has a channel, look up joy Kong MD, ask her

[@coolguy79jeffrey]

@@james575730 any updates from her? Had also drop her an email asking for stem cell treatment for CRVO, not sure if it is possible as what i know it is still on the trial basis...

@anthonythomas4948 you find anything to do about the retina scarring

[@larrylarrable4906]

Would Stem Cells be able to help with a Central Scotoma caused by solar retinopathy? I have a small blind spot right in the middle of my eye. Im assuming the same cells that are replaced and healed with patients that have AMD, RP, etc... Are the same cells that go bad during solar retinopathy?

[@heyyo1636]

Will this help with vision loss from Glaucoma?

[@marlonelrod1514]

Most likely not, CRISPER would have, I watched mother go blind, now its my turn, if you suffer with Glaucoma best wishes and hopes to you enjoy everything you can see Glaucoma can not remove the memories as mother always said.

Don't get excited. In the end, maybe again big pie in the sky. If drusen can't be excreted to surface of cornea, it's impossible to effectively treat and reverse AMD (age-related macular degeneration), dry as well as wet. Only God's mercy nano-medication should be the last-ditch treatment for AMD. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpXNo2iwaNp8mJo All glory belongs to God !

Does this also means for CRVO patients????

[@davidlo168888]

CRVO only can be effectively treated and reversed by God's mercy nano-medication. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5vCq5quoZtrhqM Don't expect western medication because western medication forever can't effectively treat CRVO. All glory belongs to God !

[@marlonelrod1514]

What about Glaucoma? Nothing to be done its genetic our hopes died when CRISPER CAS 9 did :(

[@nesanesa9547]

UPDATE PLEASE 2024.. Amd wet/dry. Xx n
