As the 2010s have been dubbed “the decade of the smartphone”, it’s no surprise that extensive research has been conducted in this area. One finding which seems to be mentioned everywhere is “blue light”. This is the light which is emitted from our phones, tablets and laptops and, sadly, it has been found to have negative effects on our eye health. Studies suggest that it has “a potential to lead to macular degeneration”, bypassing the pupil and cornea to beam directly into the retina
At a Glance
Dysfunction and death of retinal cells, and consequent vision loss, can be inhibited by direct electrical stimulation of vulnerable cells in the visual pathway
We achieve this effect not by invasive, bulky implants that generate unnatural visual stimuli, but by intravitreal injection of a colloidal suspension of nanoparticle devices that support natural vision
These “quantum dots” diffuse into the retina where they transduce visible light energy into electricity, thereby triggering action potentials in adjacent neural cells and preserving function
Gain-of-function Mutation. MGI Glossary. Definition. A type of mutation in which the altered gene product possesses a new molecular function or a new pattern of gene expression.
