A newly designed bionic eye is safe and stable for long-term implantation, researchers conclude following a three-month study in sheep. The discovery paves the way for human trials of the bionic device.
Researchers have developed a 3D printed prototype for a bionic eye. The team successfully printed an array of light receptors onto a hemispherical surface. This advance could revolutionize restoring vision to those who have lost their sight.
A new initiative is funding ground breaking research into visual prosthetic prototypes.
Retinal implants may improve image sharpness for those who have lost their vision due to retinitis pigmentosa, a new study reports.
A British woman is able to read the time clearly for the first time in years after receiving a new bionic eye implant.
New discoveries about neuroplasticity following vision loss could improve patient susceptibility to sensory prosthetics.
Researchers use simulations to mimic what vision could be like after a patient undergoes one of two different vision restoring therapies.
The Argus II system improves quality of life and visual function for people blinded by retinitis pigmentosa.
