on Camera to Brain Blindness Treatment


Really exciting. I would like to volunteer to help with this project in any way I can. My left eye is completely blind after a Vitrechtomy and detached retina repair was unsuccessful. Due to damage also tot he retina on my right eye I am unable to drive! Would love to get some sight back! I am an experienced FMCG Innovation manager with extensive project management experience - please let me know if I can help in any way and I wish you every success

my son is 11 years of age and has lost most of the sight in his left eye due to a metal object penetrating the eye and damaging the macula. is there any one we can speak to in regards to having this procedure done????
