Stem cell research is being used in South Africa to develop "disease in the dish" models that fix a gene mutation that results in night blindness, tunnel vision and eventually blindness. If the research pans out, the mutations can be fixed in a process called gene editing, which take place in stem cells derived from the patient's skin. These stem cells are turned into the tissue compromised in disease, which in this case is the retina of the eye.
