Progress on Designing a Chemical Retinal Prosthesis
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022 The last major review of progress toward a chemical retinal prosthesis was a decade ago. Many important advancements have been made since then with the aim of producing an implantable device for animal testing. We review that work here discussing the potential advantages a chemical retinal prosthesis may possess, the spatial and temporal resolutions it
