An experimental gene therapy that involves injecting CRISPR therapy directly into visually impaired patients’ eyeballs has vastly improved most volunteers’ vision — even allowing some to see color ...

Genetic diseases are a compelling target for viral gene therapy, but the results can be spotty at best. There's good news, though. On Wednesday, researchers presented evidence from a breakthrough gene ...

The most common types of color blindness, or color vision deficiency, are genetic. However, other types may develop due to injuries, eye diseases, health problems, and side effects of treatment.

Monkeys once color-blind can now see the world in full color thanks to gene therapy. The results demonstrate the potential for such methods to eventually cure human vision disorders, from color ...

Two people with a rare inherited eye disorder have had their night vision restored by an experimental gene therapy, researchers say. These two individuals are part of an ongoing clinical trial testing ...

Color is more than a sensory pleasure; it is a tool refined by evolution. Our ability to perceive a broad spectrum of hues is a remarkable biological achievement shaped by survival pressures, social ...
