Wireless subretinal implant holds promise for the visually impaired : EDN Network Tech Edge
The French company’s PRIMA subretinal system is based on a tiny silicon implant containing several thousand electrodes that is placed just behind the retina?”the part of the eye containing photoreceptor cells. The honeycomb-shaped wireless device converts light transmitted from special glasses worn by the recipient into electrical current, which stimulates the retina’s bipolar cells. According to Pixium, this approach enables a more physiological processing of the visual signal.
