—Every second week of March is World Glaucoma Week. It’s a week of campaigns to raise awareness for glaucoma, one of the three major causes of blindness. The organizers of this week are the World Health Organization, the World Glaucoma Association, and the World Glaucoma Patient Association.

With this product, you can easily design stem cells and optic nerves with patients’ somatic cells from anywhere around the world.
Shin Jung-Ju explained.
—Wow, so are you saying that we can do it without a scientist?
—Haha, no. You still need someone who studied stem cell differentiation. People will be able to make somatic cells into optic nerves following the experimentation method provided by A-Bio after receiving training from them.

—But the efficiency of the treatment increases exponentially compared to if A-Bio and their hospital treats patients.
—Of course.
—Yes. There are more than forty-five million glaucoma patients in the world....
