Acc. to WHO , about 285 million people are visually impaired worldwide. Bionic eye is electronic device that replaces functionality of a part or whole of the eye. A bionic eye works by stimulating nerves which are activated by electrical impulses .High-tech resources in microelectronics, Optoelectronics, computer science, biomedical engineering and also in vitro retinal surgery are working together to realize the device for the Electrical stimulation of the visual system. Bionic Eye, which works through retinal implants, optic nerve implant or cortical implant could restore sight to millions of people around the world who suffer from degenerative eye diseases. This has progressed to human trials and finally it is commercially available.

Visual prosthesis, retinal implants.
