Merged summary
TL;DR - Researchers injected patients’ own mitochondria into the retina in an attempt to restore vision. The procedure appeared safe, but any visual improvement was temporary.

- Mitochondria were delivered directly into the retina.
- The reported effect on vision was temporary rather than sustained.
- The limited information provided does not specify the trial size, condition treated, or magnitude of improvement.
