Wireless Visual Cortical Stimulator Market Estimated to
Flourish By 2026, GE Healthcare
Market Overview:
Wireless visual cortical stimulator devices are visual prosthetics used to restore functional vision
of a blind user. It provides electrical stimulator that bypasses defected retinal cells and
stimulates viable cells to induce visual perception. On October 26, 2016, Second Sight,
announced its first implantation in a 30-year blind patient to provide human proof for the
ongoing development of Orion I Visual Cortical Prosthesis (Orion I), wireless visual cortical
stimulator. In 2013, the U.S. FDA approved Second Sight’s Argus II System, a visual cortical
stimulator that provides electrical stimulation that bypasses defunct retinal cells to stimulate
viable cells. The difference between Orion I and Argus II System is that Orion I uses wireless
technology. The device allows restoring vision to patients completely blind due to glaucoma,
cancer, diabetic retinopathy or trauma cases. The first implantation proved that the device
perceive and localize individual light spots with no side effects associated with it. It is rare that
all technological development offers string opportunity, though the first human test of Orion I,
wireless visual cortical stimulator proved to be able to treat visually impaired patients with no
side effects. The company expects to submit the application to the FDA in early 2017 for the
initial completion of clinical trial of the complete system.
