Stem Cell Treatment for Eye Vision Loss: A revolutionary approach at EyeStemCellCenter

Partial or complete vision loss dramatically impairs a person’s function, dependence, and, ultimately, the state of their health. Often it is a progressive process, which develops in the presence of various diseases affecting the retina, such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, or damage to the optic nerve. As with all of the symptoms, vision loss may be permanent and there may not be a way to reversing its effects. But, with the help of stem cell therapy, there is new light for those who have lost vision, and Eyestemcellcenter is among those that offer it.

A Brief Guide to Vision Loss and Its Effects

There are many causes of vision impairment, such as, inherited disorders, diseases that develop over a period of time, or acquired injuries. The retina, optic nerve and cornea are part of the eye and if harmed they cause complications to vision. These diseases include macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, and diabetic retinopathy which causes gradual die off of retinal cells that control vision. When the optic nerve is affected due to diseases like glaucoma, optic nerve ailments, the loss of vision is not correctable. More so, autoptic lesions resulting from trauma or genetic disorders also lead to permanent blindness in the human eye due to damage of important components of the eye. Existing approaches, such as contact lenses, lasik surgery, or drugs, may alleviate these disorders but cannot permanently heal them or provide a sufficient remedy in cases when the harm done to the eye is severe. This is where stem cell therapy comes into the picture.

Eye vision loss can be treated with stem cell therapy

Stem cell therapy is a new frontier treatment, in which stem cells are rendered for purposes of repairing or restoring tissue damage. Living tissue of the eye can be regenerated by stem cells. At Eyestemcellcenter, we apply modern medical methods that deal directly with the causes of vision disorders and try to restore the retina, optic nerve and other important formations within the eye. The treatment involves replacing the damaged part of the eye with healthy specialized stem cells that have ability to change into different types of retinal cells. It may replace dead or injured retinal cells, initiate tissue regeneration process or even promote generation of new nerve cells simultaneously. In situations where the optic nerve has been severed then stem cells could help to replace the severed nerve endings to allow better signalling from the eye to the brain. In the case of diseases such as macular degeneration or retinitis pigmentosa which constitute retinal degenerative diseases, stem cell therapy works to restore photoreceptor cells on the outer surface of the retina and may slow or even treat vision loss. It is also important to know that in circumstances of optic nerve destruction, stem cells are able to contribute to the growth of nerves and halt further aggravation of vision.

Stem Cell Treatment: How it is Done for Vision Impairment

At Eyestemcellcenter we provide stem cell treatment that are unique to each clients’ requirement. Stem cells are obtained from autologous source or from tested donors. These stem cells are then lysed and ready to be injected directly into the eye. The stem cells are precisely delivered into regions that need them most, including the retina and optic nerve, by a minimally invasive approach. The stem cells get into action by repairing damaged tissues, promoting cell division and decreasing inflammation. Afterwards, overall vision may get better, and some patients get better vision sharpness, improved contrast sensitivity or the ability to see in the dark.
