Scientists are developing a technology that would circumvent the eyeball in order to deliver the message directly to the brain in case of visually impaired people. Researchers from EPFL in Switzerland and Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna in Italy will be doing this by stimulating the optic nerve with intraneural electrode known as OpticSELINE. The study was published in the journal 'Nature Biomedical Engineering'. We believe that intraneural stimulation can be a valuable solution for several neuroprosthetic devices for sensory and motor function restoration. The translational potentials of this approach are indeed extremely promising explains Silvestro Micera a professor of Bioelectronics at
