the damage to her retina is irreversible, so there is no biological cure for her fading vision.ears, bionic technology has allowed us to make headway against some disabilities by integrating humans with machines. but creating bionic vision has remained a sticky problem. no one has quite been able to untangle the complex relationship between the eye and the brain. at least not yet. >> people love work -- people have worked on pathetic's to help blind people for probably more than 20 years. the focus has been implanting electrodes into a patient's retina so they will see a spot of light wherever the electrode is. when people first put the implants into patients, it was really exciting to be able to drive a blind retina before the patient saw anything, but it was not that effective. nobody worried that much about it at the time because they assumed, if we had more electrodes, we will make it better and better and it will be ok. but it is not really true. there was a factor missing, and that is the signal processing, basically the code the retina uses to communicate with the brain.
