New Stem Cell Therapy Could Repair ‘Irreversible’ and Blinding Eye Damage
Stem cell therapy is emerging as a promising treatment for blindness and eye damage, giving hope to those with severe vision loss.
Novel stem cell therapy repairs 'irreversible' corneal damage in clinical trial
Results from a phase 1/2 clinical trial of a novel stem cell treatment for cornea injuries found 14 patients treated and tracked for 18 months had a more than 90% success rate at restoring the cornea's surface and improvements in vision.
Groundbreaking Stem Cell Therapy Repairs Badly Damaged Corneas and Improves Sight
The cornea is the transparent frontmost layer of the eye that both protects it and helps us see clearly by focusing light on the retina. When people’s corneas are scarred by serious injury or infection, doctors can usually treat it by transplanting healthy corneal tissue from a donor, also known as a corneal graft.
New stem cell therapy could repair 'irreversible' and blinding eye damage, trial finds
A new stem cell therapy has repaired blinding damage to the cornea in 93% of patients in an early clinical trial. The cornea is the clear dome that covers the front of the eye and helps to focus light to enable you to see clearly.
Stem cell therapy could heal injured corneas, restore vision
An experimental stem cell therapy reversed corneal damage in half of the participants from a recent clinical trial.
Stem Cell Therapy Repairs Irreversible Cornea Damage
WEDNESDAY, March 5, 2025 (HealthDay News) -- Sight-robbing injuries to the cornea can be repaired using a groundbreaking experimental stem cell treatment, a new study shows. The cornea -- the clear outermost layer of the eye -- can become irreversibly damaged if injury or disease destroys its ability to regenerate new cells.
