American scientists have printed eye tissue on a 3D printer.

The model allows you to study age-related macular degeneration and other retinal diseases. Genetic and functional analyzes have shown that the printed fabric looks and behaves just like the natural one. Now scientists are experimenting with the addition of immune cells during the printing process for better tissue reproduction. Perhaps in the future, such models can be used not only for the study of diseases, but also for their therapy.
