An investigational gene therapy has shown promise for improving functional vision and restoring light detection in long-dormant rods and cones in the retina in adults and children with a rare form of ...

The most common types of color blindness, or color vision deficiency, are genetic. However, other types may develop due to injuries, eye diseases, health problems, and side effects of treatment.

Two people with a rare inherited eye disorder have had their night vision restored by an experimental gene therapy, researchers say. These two individuals are part of an ongoing clinical trial testing ...

Color is more than a sensory pleasure; it is a tool refined by evolution. Our ability to perceive a broad spectrum of hues is a remarkable biological achievement shaped by survival pressures, social ...
