Japanese scientists have made promising progress in the use of stem cell therapy to restore vision. At Osaka University, Professor Koji Nishida and his team created a corneal cell sheet using induced pluripotent stem cells, which can be turned into almost any type of cell. This sheet is designed to replace damaged cells in the eye.

The treatment was tested on patients with limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD), a condition that can cause severe vision loss or even blindness. Four patients underwent the procedure and regained their sight—an encouraging step forward for regenerative eye treatments.

Marguerite Yourcenar disait un jour :
« Je ne pense pas tant à la vieillesse. Je n’ai jamais cru que l’âge soit un critère valable.
Il y a cinquante ans, je ne me sentais pas particulièrement jeune,
et aujourd’hui, je ne me sens pas vieille.
Mon âge change d’heure en heure.

Dans les instants de fatigue, j’ai mille ans.
Quand je travaille, j’en ai quarante.
Et dans le jardin, aux côtés de mon chien,
je me sens toute petite… j’ai quatre ans.

L’âge n’est pas un chiffre.
C’est un état de l’âme,
un souffle qui varie à chaque battement de vie. »
