Abstract

These paper proposes a new Encapsulated Artificial Prosthesis Vision System (EAPVS) that will provide visual sensation to patients suffering from retina degeneration illness. A new biocompatible encapsulated prostheses containing a hole Artificial Vision System (AVS) including all components required to build a complete artificial eye is presented. The optical lens system and the hole microelectronic light sensors, coders and decoders circuits required to generate the electrical stimulus to the optic nervous to regenerate the human visual functionality are located inside a polymethyl metcrylate (PMMA) globe prostheses case inside the eye ball.
