Scientists have developed a flexible eye implant that enables blind mice to perceive infrared light without damaging eye tissue. This new technology could expand treatment options for blindness, but its effectiveness and perception in humans remain unknown.
MIT researchers have developed a non-invasive scanner that can measure blood glucose levels without the need for needles, using infrared light. This new technology has already demonstrated high accuracy and could make blood sugar monitoring much more comfortable for people with diabetes in the future.
In a clinical study, a miniature implant and smart glasses helped most patients with severe macular degeneration partially regain their ability to read. This technology enables users to distinguish shapes and outlines, significantly improving the quality of life for people with incurable vision loss.
