My father is nearly blind after multiple bouts of Ischemic Optic Neuropathy, which irreparably damages the optic nerve. It’s nearly destroyed his quality of life over the last several years.
I know it’s not the same as the retina, but how I wish a miracle of modern science could help to restore my dads vision in the years he has left.

Very thankful for science like this, regardless.
