Patients walking into a standard eye appointment may soon walk out with an early warning about their heart. A new class of AI ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. This piece is part of a series dedicated to the eye and improvements in restoring vision. In 1999, I defined ...

Researchers have identified novel retinal vascular signatures that are significantly associated with the risk for a first stroke. When combined with age and sex, these retinal “fingerprints” predicted ...

Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), single-gene disorders affecting the retina, are very difficult to diagnose since they are uncommon and involve changes in one of many candidate genes. Outside ...

A simple digital photograph of the back of the eye can predict a major cardiovascular event—such as a heart attack or stroke—set to happen in the next decade with 70% accuracy, according to research ...

The research, presented at the American Society of Retina Specialists (ASRS) 2026 Annual Meeting in Montreal, analyzed the use of home-based optical coherence tomography (OCT) for patients on ...

Medical science has taken a remarkable leap forward in stroke prevention with the discovery that our eyes may hold the key to predicting stroke risk. Leading researchers have identified a ...

Researchers have developed a technique combining adaptive optics and computational aberration correction to capture the full thickness of the retina in a single high-resolution scan. The method ...

British researchers may have found a way to diagnose Parkinson's disease several years sooner. Researchers at University College London and Moorfields Eye Hospital say that eye scans may be able to ...

Mediwhale co-founder and CEO Kevin Choi discovered that he had lost vision in nearly half of one of his eyes from glaucoma when he was 24, which is rare in young people. “I was devastated and could ...

Is the eye a window into aging? New research has shown how imaging of the fundus, the blood vessel-rich tissue in the retina, can be used to track human aging, in a way that is noninvasive, less ...
