Technological advancements have allowed researches from Frauhofer Institute in Germany to produce an aesthetic cornea that may give hope to the blind. The Cornea is carefully layered with a special protein that latches to the natural cornea after implantation. These sight-saving implants have been tested in the Regensburg University Hospital Laboratory using rabbits’ eyes. Successful results yield the proposition to grant human use sometime in 2008.
