Researchers have developed a retinal prosthesis made of tellurium nanowires that restores partial vision in blind mice and enables near-infrared vision in primates. The implant, woven into a lattice of light-sensitive nanowires, converts both visible and near-infrared light into electrical signals that can be detected by the brain.

Cataracts are one of the leading causes of blindness in the United States. If left untreated, cataracts can result in blindness. Furthermore, the longer cataracts remain untreated, the more difficult it becomes to successfully remove them and restore vision.

During Cataract Awareness Month in June, the American Academy of Ophthalmology reminds the public that early detection and treatment of cataracts are crucial for preserving sight.
