Abstract
More than 50 million people are suffering from blindness worldwide. In addition, the number of blinded patients is increasing. Cataract, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and corneal disorders are major causes of blindness. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have a central role in the development of the above ocular diseases. Understanding the mechanism of AGE formation will be a clue to the prevention and treatment of major causes of blindness.
