And what did you think of the article?

LOL - I was wowing the article. Obviously, this is the dream of stem cell use, immediate "resetting" of a part of the body that is failing, with it's own stem cells (notice no embryonic stam cells were used, but rather those obtained from the defective eyes themselves).

Yes. It seems they use like cells from the patient. I guess that would eliminate rejection problems.
