Science Corp implants vision chip in first Stargardt patient
Original: Science Corporation implants its vision-restoring chip in its first Stargardt disease patient
Science Corporation has implanted its vision-restoring chip in its first patient with Stargardt disease, an inherited condition that causes progressive loss of central vision, typically starting in childhood. The procedure marks an expansion of the company's retinal implant technology into a new patient group, following earlier work on devices aimed at restoring partial sight in people with degenerative eye conditions.
Why now: The first-ever implant in a Stargardt patient is a milestone for vision-restoring technology and raises hopes for treating inherited blindness.
