Abstract

Visual implants electrically activate adjacent neurons to induce artificial perception for visual impairment patients to restore some sight. Proximity of electrode carrier to the ganglion cell has attracted careful consideration due to its implications on secure electrochemical and single-localized stimulation. In this study, we postulate a novel strategy to treat the proximity of electrode-cell. A simulation framework includes the carrier dislocation using the geometric parameters of Argus II® epiretinal electrode carrier design. Lastly, we present results on the offset angle of displacement.Clinical Relevance- This postulates a novel strategy to treat the dislocation of electrode carrier confined with a single tack.
