Abstract

The invention discloses an artificial retina implant. The artificial retina implant comprises a receiving coil, a demodulation stimulation module, an electrode array and a loop electrode. The receiving coil is in alignment connection with a transmission coil of an artificial retina in-vitro device and receives image coding signals and energy emitted by the in-vitro device, the demodulation stimulation module is connected with the receiving coil and decodes the image coding signals received by the receiving coil, converts the received image coding signals into electrical signals and transmits the electrical signals to the electrode array, and the received energy is converted. The artificial retina implant can achieve the visual effect only by stimulating retinal ganglion cells of the inner layer, and is easy to implant, safe and reliable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical devices, in particular to an artificial retinal implant. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the continuous advancement of science and technology, artificial retinal repair technology has been produced, which directly converts optical signals into electrical signals, and then uses electrical signals to stimulate retinal inner layer cells, which can restore the patient's vision to a certain extent. It has become a research hotspot in the field of visual restoration. The methods of retinal electrical stimulation are divided into two categories according to the location of the stimulating electrodes. The first type is embedded in the photoreceptor cell layer with a micro-current stimulation chip generated by a photosensitive diode, which is called a sub-retina implant, and its electrical stimulation targets are mainly bipolar cells; the second type is The radio frequency current transmits the...
