Abstract
This chapter introduces the main anatomical features of the eye, the processes involved in vision and eye disorders, and diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa and age-related macular degeneration which can affect normal vision. The use of microelectrodes and microphotodiodes in retinal, subretinal, and suprachoroidal implants is introduced with an emphasis on the Argus II Retinal Prosthesis (Second Sight Medical Products); the Artificial Silicon Retina (Optobionics); Alpha-IMS (Retina Implant AG); Wide-View BVA and High-Acuity BVA (Bionic Vision Australia); and Boston Retinal Implant Project (Bionic Eye Technologies, Inc. and Visus Technologies, Inc.).
