How does the bionic eye work?

In: Eyes and Vision Disorders [Edit categories]

Answer:

The device called the " Bionic eye" consists of glasses mounted with a camera.
This camera is attached to a stimulator (an electronic chip) on the retina, optic nerve or in the portion of the brain which produces perceptions of vision.
When light falls on the camera, it focus the light on to the stimulator.
The stimulator converts light to electrical signals which then reach the appropriate section of the brain responsible for vision.
However, this technique is best suited to patients whose optic nerves developed well in spite of losing their vision.
