 INTRODUCTION

 Bionic eye is a bio-electronic eye.

 Replaces the functionality of a part
or whole of the eye
 In our proposed method of bionic eye, a
small and a powerful camera powered by
nanogenerator, is implanted inside the patient’s
eye

Parts of Bionic Eye
 How it works

 The bionic vision system consists of a camera,

attached to a pair of glasses, which transmits
high-frequency radio signals to a microchip
implanted in the eye.
 Electrodes on the implanted chip convert these
signals into electrical impulses to stimulate cells
in the retina that connect to the optic nerve.
 These impulses are then passed down along the
optic nerve to the vision processing centers of the
brain, where they are interpreted as an image.
 Advantages & Disadvantages

Advantages Disadvantages

 It identifies the  Costly

location or movement  If a single part of the
of objects and people chip is damaged the
 Help in other activities total technique will be
of life meaningless
 Conclusion

 We may not restore the vision fully, but we can

help them at least to find their way, recognize faces,
read books, distinguish between objects such as cups
and plates, above all lead an independent life
