Scientists at Columbia University, New York, have used a microchip to map the back of the eye for disease diagnosis. The interference technology used in the microchip — like bat sonar but using light instead of sound waves — has been around for a little while. However, this is the first time that technical obstacles have been overcome to fabricate a miniature device able to capture high quality images.
