Breakthrough Gene Therapy for Glaucoma: Revolutionizing Vision Restoration
Revolutionary Approach to Glaucoma Treatment
Scientists at Trinity College Dublin have pioneered a novel gene therapy aimed specifically at glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness. This therapy primarily focuses on protecting retinal cells to preserve vision.
Mechanism of Action
- Retinal Cell Protection: The therapy effectively targets retinal cell survival.
- Mitochondrial Function Enhancement: It boosts mitochondrial function, which is crucial for cellular health.
Future of Glaucoma Treatment
With the potential to significantly improve patient outcomes, this breakthrough offers hope in the fight against glaucoma. As research progresses, we look forward to seeing how this innovative therapy will impact the treatment landscape.
