The implantable mini-scope, developed by Saratoga, Calif. - based VisionCare Ophthalmic Technologies, works with the eye's cornea like a telephoto system, rendering an enlarged
retinal image designed to reduce the area of diminished vision.
So, with that in mind, with this new understanding of fundamental biology, the group went back into the engineering side and said well, what can we do to
image «off»
retinal ganglion cell layers of the inner plexiform layer, and also to
design a new visual field exam that could measure the «off»
retinal ganglion cells separately from the «on»
retinal ganglion cells?
