Also, during daytime conditions, they become saturated with light and no longer function properly.Recently, researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China and the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Boston started looking for ways to boost vision in mammals at NIR wavelengths without the need for wearable technology.The work forms part of a new wave of research focused on integrating nanoparticles with biological systems. As the authors explain:"[I]n addition to visual ability enhancement, this nanodevice can serve as an integrated and light-controlled system in medicine, which could be useful in the repair of visual function as well as in drug delivery for ocular diseases."These are early findings, so much more work will be needed before scientists can use the technique widely; however, already, these results are intriguing and fascinating in their own right.Your privacy is important to us.Healthline Media UK Ltd, Brighton, UK.© 2004-2019 All rights reserved.
