the other part of the retina outside of the macula called the peripheral retina. this is very important, too, because it's the part of the retina that lets us see in the dark. so this is low-light vision. actually, you can appreciate this part of the retina, too, because if you've ever looked at a starry night, if you've noticed if you don't point your eye directly at the star but you look a little off kilter, the star gets brighter, and that's because you're using the edges of your retina, the peripheral retina, which has very high sensitivity for light but isn't as good for high resolution images. so we have these two aspects of the retina. now, the last thing i want to talk about is what are the types of neurons in the retina. so we can look at a blowup of this macular region. there are nerve cells -- specialized nerve cells in the retina that are capable of converting light energy to a neural signal, and those are called the photoreceptors. there are two kinds of photoreceptors. there are the rods and there are the cones. the cones are the photoreceptors that

the other part of the retina outside of the macular is called the peripheral retina. this is very important because it is the part of the retina that lets us see in the dark. this is low light vision. actually you can appreciate this part of the retina because if you have ever looked at a starry night, if you don't point your eye at the start, you look a little off, the stars brighter and that is because you are using the edges of your retina which has very high sensitivity for light but is not as good for high resolution images. so we have these two aspects of the retina. the last thing i want to talk about is what are the types of neurons in the retina? we can look at a blowup of this region. there are nerve cells that are capable of converting light energy. and those are called the photoreceptors. there are two kinds of photoreceptors. the rods and cones. the cones are crucial for high resolution vision and they are in the center. the rods are the photoreceptors in the peripheral retina and those are really essential for high sensitivity vision. the next step is th

we're talking about artificial retina. what is the artificial retina made of?lly a ray, electrodes placed on the surface of the retina and there is a cable there, basically transmits information that is seen on a camera, on to the array and the electrodes electrically affect the nerves that transmit the signal to the brain. jenna: it sound incredible. how is it to do the surgery with that beer? >> yeah, you know, the surgery is long. it is a four-hour operation and you know, every step has to be very carefully done. measurements have to be made. we spend a long time doing the measurements that the array, electrodes fall exactly on the perfect position on the retina. jenna: we certainly have a lot of respect for your talents on that end. because the man we're talking about now can see some of the images he hasn't been able to see. but it is important that he has to wear that set of eye glasses as well, doctor. can you explain why? >> right. so the camera is actually mounted on the glasses and, when, you know the camera sort of allows him to see the outside world
