Sepofarsen injections for LCA10 due to the CEP290 p.Cys998X mutation
This study will test whether sepofarsen eye injections can improve vision in children and adults with LCA10 caused by the CEP290 c.2991+1655A>G (p.Cys998X) mutation.

Understanding how Giant Cell Arteritis affects vision
This study is trying to understand how Giant Cell Arteritis affects vision in adults by comparing eye health in those with GCA-related vision problems to those with other causes of vision loss.
-
Creating advanced tactile aids for blind individuals
This study is testing new tactile aids made from special materials to see if they help blind and low vision individuals recognize objects better and faster than regular tactile aids.
-
Using stem cells to treat retinal and optic nerve damage
This study is testing if using stem cells from your own bone marrow can help improve vision in people with serious eye damage from conditions like age-related macular degeneration and optic nerve problems.
-
Cortical visual prosthesis development for the blind
This study is testing a new device that uses tiny electrodes to help people who are profoundly blind gain a limited sense of vision.
