A new method of taking microscopic images of a live mouse’s retina through the eye allows the researchers clear, long-term observation of the living retina, down to the minute movements of microglia.

Studying how mice see has helped researchers discover unprecedented details about how individual brain cells communicate and work together to create a mental picture of the visual world.

Vision changes are an inevitable part of aging, but why are some more susceptible to age-related eye diseases and why do some individuals experience more severe decline than others? New research from ...

Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new mouse model that more accurately reflects how uveal melanoma acts in humans. This could improve research, resulting in better patient outcomes ...

1. A mesh of multiple electrodes is injected toward the rear of the mouse eye, where it unfurls onto the retina. 2. Wires connected to the mesh extend from the corner of the animal’s eye to enable ...

Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers report they have genetically mapped the cell types that make up the mouse iris — the thin disc of pigmented tissue that, in humans, gives eyes their distinct colors.

Aerobic glycolysis, the process by which cells transform glucose into lactate, is key for eye development in mammals, according to a new study. Aerobic glycolysis, the process by which cells transform ...
