About this Research Topic
The retina is the neuro-vascular organ required to perceive the light and to transfer the information to the brain to create the sense of vision. Many environmental and genetic factors leads to degeneration of neuro-vascular components and results in vision loss . Retina diseases can affect people of all ages, from prematurely born infants to age-related blindness in late states of life.
In this research topic, we aim to publish articles describing omics of retina diseases to better understand biochemical mechanisms and biomarkers. We welcome new discoveries in retinopathy research including but not limited to retinopathy of prematurity, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and other rare retina diseases. Articles may highlight new techniques, new findings originating from advanced technologies like mass spectrometry, a new in silico method to detect retinopathies or biomarkers to detect the development and/or progression of the disease.
