Abstract
Senior Editor Eliza Strickland [top] was dazzled when she heard about the first retinal implant approved to restore vision to the blind. That was back in 2011, when the system-the first commercial device to provide artificial vision by using electrodes to stimulate retinal cells-was approved in Europe and was poised for approval in the United States. While the vision was extremely crude, early adopters were told they'd get upgrades as the device's maker, Second Sight Medical Products, improved it.
