Finally! Some smart person from germany was able to design a microchip that would help the blind see again.
In simple terms, this is the process
- The implant partially restored vision in retinitis pigmentosa sufferers
- The 3mm chip made up of 1,500 pixels was placed at the rear of the eyeball
- Patients were able to recognise facial expressions and distinguish objects
- Scientists at Tubingen University said the trials 'exceeded expectations'
There is one small spot where the nerve is still working which is what they based their microchip on. When technology and science and medicine come together, you can't help but get your mind blown!
