Artificial Organs, 2003
Abstract: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) are incurable diseases that result in profound vision loss due to degeneration of the light sensing photoreceptors. However, the discovery that direct electrical stimulation of the retinal neurons creates visual sensation has inspired prosthetic devices aimed to restore ...

Experimental visual prosthesis
Proceedings of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, 1973Of the methods available which seek artificially to replace the sensory input lost through blindness, the approach which should ultimately be of greatest value is that by which visual information is fed directly to the brain. The paper reviews earlier work in this field and describes a new prosthesis which gives grounds for optimism.

Psychophysical Evaluation for Visual Prosthesis
Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering, 2008Vision restoration through retinal, optic nerve, and cortical implants is no longer just the stuff of fantasy. The design and development of visual prostheses rapidly move from the engineering phase toward preclinical and clinical trials, yet the benchmarks to determine their efficacy in blind research subjects have received very little attention, and

Implantable Imaging System for Visual Prosthesis
Artificial Organs, 2010AbstractIn order to propose a method of intraocular imaging system for the visual prosthesis, an implantable microcamera was developed and evaluated in vivo. The microcamera was specially developed and shaped to fit the rabbit's lens capsule and encapsulated with the biocompatible silicone. To evaluate the feasibility of this novel approach, the custom‐

[Review of visual prosthesis (I)--retinal prosthesis].
Sheng wu yi xue gong cheng xue za zhi = Journal of biomedical engineering = Shengwu yixue gongchengxue zazhi, 2009Research on how to totally or partially restore the vision has attracted more attention in the fields of neural engineering and tissue engineering. Neural interface and visual prosthesis offer alternative ways for partially repairing the visual impairment. The most widely used visual prosthetics are based on retinal stimulation. This article is a state-

Thalamic Visual Prosthesis Project
2016The lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus (LGN) is a well-studied structure in the early visual pathway that links the retina to the primary visual cortex. As a deep structure, it has been long overlooked by the visual prosthesis field due to surgical inaccessibility.
