Visioncare, an Israeli science company has once again brought the State of Israel to the forefront in technological development by creating the only solution for end-stage AMD, the most common form of blindness found in the elderly. Visioncare has invented a tiny pea-sized telescope implant that is placed inside the patient’s eye, which in return enlarges the central vision images over the damaged area allowing the patient to use the eye to provide peripheral vision for mobility. This development in technology has been described by an assistant professor of ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School, Kathryn A. Colby, as “a breakthrough technology” and will be introduced in both the United States and UK in the near future. (Israel21c.org)
