Abstract in brief

  • The study explores using gold nanorods injected into the eye to activate bipolar cells with near-infrared laser patterns, offering a minimally invasive way to restore vision in degenerative eye conditions.
  • This approach uses laser-stimulated heating of the nanorods to trigger neural responses without damaging the retina or interfering with residual vision, and can cover larger retinal areas through less invasive injections.
  • Experiments in mice showed that this method successfully evoked visual brain responses without toxicity, indicating potential for precise, high-resolution vision restoration in humans.]
