Abstract
An intraocular device including a prism and shift amplifier is provided. Also provided is a system containing the intraocular device, and a method for improving vision of a person with central vision loss. The method involves implanting the intraocular device in the person so that the prism and shift amplifier cumulatively shift a retinal image away from the fovea of an eye to a functional retinal portion of the eye. Also provided is a method for correcting a binocular misalignment of a person using the intraocular device.
