TL;DR: These results demonstrate for the first time that subretinal micro-electrode arrays with 1500 photodiodes can create detailed meaningful visual perception in previously blind individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scleral Buckling versus Primary Vitrectomy in Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment: A Prospective Randomized Multicenter Clinical Study
Heinrich Heimann,Karl Ulrich Bartz-Schmidt,Norbert Bornfeld,Claudia Weiss,Ralf-Dieter Hilgers,Michael H. Foerster +5 more
TL;DR: The study shows a benefit of SB in phakic eyes with respect to BCVA improvement, and based on a better anatomical outcome, recommends PPV in these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Artificial vision with wirelessly powered subretinal electronic implant alpha-IMS.
Katarina Stingl,Karl Ulrich Bartz-Schmidt,Dorothea Besch,Angelika Braun,A. Bruckmann,Florian Gekeler,Udo Greppmaier,Stephanie Hipp,Gernot Hörtdörfer,Christoph Kernstock,Assen Koitschev,Akos Kusnyerik,Akos Kusnyerik,Helmut G. Sachs,Andreas Schatz,Krunoslav Stingl,Tobias Peters,Barbara Wilhelm,Eberhart Zrenner +18 more
TL;DR: The data show that subretinal implants can restore visual functions that are useful for daily life in patients who are blind owing to untreatable forms of hereditary retinal degenerations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subretinal Visual Implant Alpha IMS - Clinical trial interim report
Katarina Stingl,Karl Ulrich Bartz-Schmidt,Dorothea Besch,Caroline Chee,Charles L Cottriall,Florian Gekeler,Markus Groppe,Timothy L Jackson,Robert E MacLaren,Assen Koitschev,Akos Kusnyerik,James E. Neffendorf,János Németh,Mohamed Adheem Naser Naeem,Tobias Peters,James D. Ramsden,Helmut G. Sachs,Andrew Simpson,Mandeep S. Singh,Barbara Wilhelm,David Wong,Eberhart Zrenner +21 more
TL;DR: These results show that subretinal implants can restore very-low-vision or low vision in blind (light perception or less) patients with end-stage hereditary retinal degenerations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetration of bevacizumab through the retina after intravitreal injection in the monkey
Peter Heiduschka,Heike Fietz,Sabine Hofmeister,Sigrid Schultheiss,Andreas F. Mack,Swaantje Peters,Focke Ziemssen,Birgit Niggemann,Sylvie Julien,Karl Ulrich Bartz-Schmidt,Ulrich Schraermeyer +10 more
TL;DR: Results clearly show that the bevacizumab molecule can penetrate the retina and is also transported into the retinal pigment epithelium, the choroid and, in particular, into photoreceptor outer segments after intravitreal injection of Avastin.
