NIH-Funded Research Uncovers Stem Cell Therapy Treatment for Vision Loss - From Labs to Lives

At UC Davis, Dr. Susanna S. Park is leading groundbreaking research on using stem cell therapy to treat vision loss caused by retinal vein occlusion (RVO)—a condition where blocked blood flow damages the retina, which is like a stroke to the eye and often leads to blindness. This research is funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). For many, vision loss from RVO means struggling with everyday tasks like reading, driving or recognizing faces. Dr. Park’s research could change that, offering a way to restore sight and independence. Without continued funding, progress in these treatments could stall, leaving patients with limited options. Sustained investment ensures that this groundbreaking research moves forward, bringing the possibility of restored vision closer to reality. #NIH #visionrecovery #research #ucdavis #eyecenter
