that the mature recipient retina, which was considered to lack the potential for repair, does in fact, supports the development of the transplanted immature cells.

If the technique were to be extrapolated on to humans, it would involve taking stem cells from second trimester fetuses in the womb. But, to specialists, that is not the choicest of options. Instead they aim to look at adult retinal cells and to draw on its stem cell-like qualities. It would be fitting to conclude that this extraordinary piece of work might well be the torchbearer in eradicating blindness, illuminating many a human life grappling in the dark.
