Tech Tuesday find: bionic glasses that may restore vision to some people who are blind!
Bionic Glasses are said to work on patients who still have most of the pathways that enable sight intact — except for their photoreceptors. Photoreceptors are responsible for sending signals to special cells in the back of the eye, which then relay that information via the optic nerve to the brain.
Thus, bionic glasses may become the solution for returning sight to those with macular degeneration and retinal detachment, disorders that cause the destruction of the photoreceptors, but leave the rest of the sensory pathway in tact.
