Blindness cure News

In a remote Himalayan village where basic healthcare is a dream and roads disappear into clouds, one man dared to defy destiny. Armed with nothing but skill, compassion, and a pair of steady hands, Dr Sanduk Ruit has quietly transformed over 100,000 lives—restoring sight to the blind without charging a single rupee to those who couldn’t afford it. Now, with the world finally taking notice following his 2025 Isa Award for Service to Humanity, the story of this unsung hero is emerging from the shadows. What he’s achieved isn’t just rare—it’s revolutionary. 

The study was published in Nature Communications. Retinal vein occlusion occurs when a major vein that drains blood from the retina is blocked, usually due to a blood clot. As a result, blood and other fluids leak into the retina, damaging specialized light-sensing neurons called photoreceptors.

In the study, when the scientists injected drugs that kept GABA concentrations in the retinas of newly blinded fish at a high level, they found it suppressed the regeneration process.
