The unexpected sight: improvement of visual function following intracortical microstimulation of the human occipital cortex Alfaro et al. report the case of a blind individual who participated in a clinical trial involving intracortical microstimulation of the visual cortex. Fol

A blind person recovered low vision within a few days of being implanted with a Utah array and receiving electrical stimulation in the visual cortex.

An unexpected and exciting discovery by @umh.es researchers 👀🧠
