Curing Blindness

Achieving what was thought impossible: reversing vision loss in advanced MD

“This study confirms that, for the first time, we can restore functional central vision in patients blinded by geographic atrophy,”

Thus spoke Dr. Frank Holz, lead author of this NEJM paper, lead investigator, and Chair of the Department of Ophthalmology at the University Hospital of Bonn.

“The implant represents a paradigm shift in treating late-stage AMD.”

Helping the blind see is today’s good thing.
