Finally, the tellurium meshes, especially the infrared vision capability they offered, were tested on healthy macaques, an ...

Newer techniques using nanoparticles are less invasive, but some need bright visible light, which can harm any remaining ...

During tests, the formerly blind mice performed nearly as well as sighted mice in pattern recognition tasks. Potential first step toward bionic eyes, with infrared ‘super sight’ ...

To test the TeNWN device in a primate it was implanted in a crab-eating macaque monkey, where the nanoprosthesis was tightly bound to the retina in the subretinal space and generated robust ...

Researchers say the infrared lenses may also help people with color blindness Cara Lynn Shultz is a writer-reporter at PEOPLE. Her work has previously appeared in Billboard and Reader's Digest ...

A new prosthesis for the retina weaved with nanowires partially restored vision in blind mice and allowed detection of near-infrared light in macaques, according to a new study.

Scientists have developed revolutionary contact lenses that grant wearers the ability to see infrared light—a feat humans naturally cannot achieve. This breakthrough, detailed in the journal ...

The contact lenses in question are made with nanoparticles which absorb infrared light, and as Phys.org, which spotted this invention, points out, specifically this is near-infrared light (NIR ...

Infrared contact lenses let you see in the dark Mice and humans were able to detect infrared light, even with their eyes closed, with limited resolution.
