A recently published review details the challenges inherent in developing a bionic vision device employing electrical stimulation of visual cortex. The paper covers the spectrum of biological, engineering and clinical problems that developers of such devices (including the Monash Vision Group) have encountered thus far. The authors are Dr Phil Lewis, Dr Helen Ackland, Professor Arthur Lowery and Professor Jeffrey V. Rosenfeld.
