Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding the origin of visual percepts elicited by electrical stimulation of the human retina.

TL;DR: Electrical stimulation of the krypton red-ablated area best simulated the electrically elicited visual perceptions of blind, ORD patients, suggesting that the site of stimulation in blind patients is the inner retinal neurons.
Book ChapterDOI

Argus® II Retinal Prosthesis System

TL;DR: The Argus® II epiretinal prosthesis was the first retinal implant to receive commercial approval in Europe and in the United States and to date, it is the most widely used prosthesis worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paragraph text reading using a pixelized prosthetic vision simulator: parameter dependence and task learning in free-viewing conditions.

TL;DR: The results suggest that a 3 x 3-mm2 prosthesis with 16 x 16 electrodes should allow paragraph reading, and the effects of stabilizing the dot grid on the retina must be investigated further.
Journal ArticleDOI

Limited inferior macular translocation for the treatment of subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration.

TL;DR: Limited macular translocation is a technically feasible procedure that can lead to significant visual improvement and good visual acuity in some patients presenting with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization associated with age-related macular degeneration.
Patent
