Stem cells to cure cornea!

Postby Sajeev » Sun 06 Mar 2005 12:49 pm

Here is a quote from the article:

"The procedure pioneered by Indian researchers involves the removal of adult stem cells from the limbic region of the patientÂ’s own eyes. These stem cells are then used to reconstruct damage regions, including the retina and the cornea."
