Stem Cell Reports.
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), a layer of pigmented cells in the retina, is essential for sustaining normal vision. Blindness due to RPE dysfunction, such as macular degeneration, affects about 200 million people worldwide.

These unique cells have the potential to serve as an unlimited resource of human RPE, with the possibility of donor compatibility matching. ....
