New molecules, lasers, implants, gene therapy… Impressive advances in ophthalmology

It is obvious! Sight is the first of our five senses, also the most precious, as it is threatened today by our lifestyles and the harsh environment everywhere on the planet. Do we know, for example, that 2.2 billion people are visually impaired or even blind, according to World Health Organization (WHO) estimates?

If they are less serious, other developments are also problematic. 2.6 billion people are nearsighted, which could double by 2050. France is not spared. Like other countries, it is experiencing a veritable epidemic of myopia. Due to its aging population, it is also experiencing an increase in cases of presbyopia, cataracts, glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The observation is worrisome, but far from hopeless, as ophthalmology has made giant strides over the past ten years. Finally, with promising pathways, pathologies that were previously considered incurable.

Any difficulty…
