Scientists used highly sophisticated brain imaging tools and computational methods to measure the real-time brain processes that convert the appearance of a face into the recognition of an individual

UNC scientists conduct seminal experiments to unveil how early-in-life visual experiences—simply trying to see—sculpt a particular subnetwork of brain circuitry we need in order to see properly

In the study, human subjects viewed a series of quickly flashed images, and reported which ones they saw and which they could not see, while their brain activity was monitored using magnetoencephalography

Bacteria in your intestines may play an important role in determining if you will develop blinding wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

Broken links between retinal ganglion cells and target structures throughout the brain spell permanent vision loss. But in a new study, these long-distance connections—and partial vision—were restored

Don't throw away your glasses just yet, but a zap to the brain could one day help you see better

Ophthalmologists find retinal bleeding, abnormal blood vessel development and lesions in infants born to mothers who showed signs of the viral infection during pregnancy

The gene therapy treatment was designed to slow or stop sight loss, however, two of the patients experienced a significant improvement in vision that was sustained for at least four years

Researchers studied two banana varieties to find out why they make very different amounts of carotenoids, which are important for eye health

Neuronal feedback could change what we "see"
