Neuralink's Blindsight implant has received FDA breakthrough status, aiming to restore sight by stimulating the visual cortex ...

Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...

For centuries, vision has been one of the most essential aspects of human experience, shaping how we navigate and understand the world. But what happens when vision is no longer constrained by biology ...

Traumatic injury to the brain, spinal cord and optic nerve in the central nervous system (CNS) are the leading cause of disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide. CNS injuries often ...

People with aphantasia—individuals who report experiencing no visual imagery at all—also showed reduced activation of the brain's visual cortex in response to sounds, according to a new study. The ...

Visual changes can often be a symptom of a neurological condition, such as stroke, migraine, or an infection. In some cases, changes may be permanent or progressive, but in many cases, prompt ...
