Photopharmacology for vision restoration

Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2022
Blinding diseases that are caused by degeneration of rod and cone photoreceptor cells often spare the rest of the retinal circuit, from bipolar cells, which are directly innervated by photoreceptor cells, to the output ganglion cells that project axons to the brain.

Opsins for vision restoration

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2020
Optogenetics is a biological technique that combines the advantageous spatial-temporal resolution of optics and genetic cell targeting to control cellular activity with unprecedented precision. It has found vast applications both in neurosciences and therapy, particularly in view of its application to restore vision in blind patients.
