Prototype smartphone app can help parents detect early signs of eye disorders in children
A Baylor University researcher’s prototype smartphone app — designed to help parents detect early signs of various eye diseases in their children such as retinoblastoma, an aggressive pediatric eye cancer — has passed its first big test. The CRADLE app

Molecular basis of vision revealed
Researchers have solved the three-dimensional structure of a protein complex involved in vertebrate vision at atomic resolution, a finding that has broad implications for our understanding of biological signaling processes and the design of over a third of the drugs

Optic nerve stimulation to aid the blind
Scientists from EPFL in Switzerland and Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna in Italy are developing technology for the blind that bypasses the eyeball entirely and sends messages to the brain. They do this by stimulating the optic nerve with a new type

Researchers develop ‘autofocal’ spectacles
Researchers at Stanford University have developed ‘autofocal’ spectacles which adjust power using eye tracking technology. The prototype spectacles use fluid-filled lenses that bulge and thin according to data from eye tracking and depth sensors triangulate where a person is looking
