Modeling electrical stimulation of retinal ganglion cell with optimizing additive noises for reducing threshold and energy consumption

Abstract Background Epiretinal prosthesis is one device for the treatment of blindness, which target retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) by electrodes on retinal surface. The stimulating current of epiretinal prosthesis is an important factor that influences the safety threshold and visual perception. Sto...
