They used a solution called Chlorin e6 (Ce6), which is found in some deep-sea fish and has light-amplification properties, and is also been used in cancer treatment research. By combining Ce6 with insulin and saline, the team produced a solution that can increase vision in low light conditions.

“In the team’s experiment, the liquid was dripped onto the conjunctival sacs on the eye of Gabriel Licina, one of the researchers, which carried the solution to his retinas.Ce6 solution was added to the conjunctival sac via micropippette at three doses of 50μl [microlitres] into each eye. The solution initially made his eyes turn black, before being absorbed in a few seconds and returning his eyes to their natural color,” reports The Daily Mail.
