I’m hoping this can be adapted to the retina (espeically for Macular Degeneration).

Yes. Cheap, simple and possibly adaptable to other eye damage or even other organs. I hope they make progress with this.

Good to know. I have a friend who has AMD.

This stem cell research and the Red Wine extract “reversatol” (sp?) can be a major cost savings boon. By taking care of these problems (diseases) early (in combination of preventative drugs) it would increase the quality of life, limit the ancillary charges of sickness and lower the burden to the insurance/medicare systems.

The challenge is, does our country have the will to do this or will we “nationalize” everything and put everything on hold????
