  • Abstract
    We developed a 2nd generation suprachoroidal transretinal stimulation (STS) system with a 49 channel electrode array and implanted in 2 dogs. One month after surgery, all electrodes were functioning and the ocular fundus was normal in both dogs. The results indicate the 2nd generation STS retinal prosthesis is feasible and can be considered for clinical use.
