Proceedings ArticleDOI

Retinal prosthesis phosphene shape analysis

TL;DR: Psychophysical clinical data examining how stimulation amplitude affects phosphene shape and repeatability on a single electrode shows that stimulation of the retina creates repeatable percept shapes and that an increase in stimulation amplitude causes a significant change in size and shape of phosphenes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term stimulation by active epiretinal implants in normal and RCD1 dogs.

TL;DR: Chronic electrical stimulation of the dog retina at up to 0.1 mC cm(-2) with an epiretinal prosthesis does not appear to adversely affect the retina.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Comparison of Two and Three Dimensional Dipole Antennas for an Implantable Retinal Prosthesis

TL;DR: In this paper, the feasibility of using three dimensional folded dipole antennas as a data-telemetry implantable receiving antenna in a dual-unit retinal prosthesis to restore partial vision to the blind was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrical stimulation in normal and retinal degeneration (rd1) isolated mouse retina.

TL;DR: Both the electrode positioning as well as the health of the retinal tissue play a role in the stimulating current required to elicit a retinal response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Subretinal implantation of a monolayer of human embryonic stem cell-derived retinal pigment epithelium: a feasibility and safety study in Yucatán minipigs

TL;DR: Although inconclusive regarding the necessity or benefit of systemic or local immunosuppression, this study demonstrates the feasibility and safety of CPCB-RPE1 subretinal implantation in a comparable animal model and provides an encouraging starting point for human studies.
