Abstract
Protein-based subretinal implants offer a new approach to restoring vision for patients blinded by conditions such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The present invention relates to bacteriorhodopsin-based (BR-based) retinal implants that can be implanted in a subretinal position to replace degenerated photoreceptor cells.
