During the last week, we’ve had quite a diverse selection of headlines related to the UK stem cell research that showed vision improvement in 2 people.

We found that there are 12 million children in the world with refractive errors. Sue writes “In other words, we could CURE 12 million cases of childhood visual impairment with glasses!”
