Highlights
  • A Stanford Medicine trial shows a wireless retinal prosthesis restoring enough central vision for reading and recognizing details.
  • The system uses a glasses camera and implanted retinal chip that converts images into electrical stimulation to support central vision.
  • Because the retinal chip is photovoltaic, it operates wirelessly under the retina, avoiding external power cables used by earlier implants.
