Minimizing activation of overlying axons with epiretinal stimulation: The role of fiber orientation and electrode configuration.
Currently, a challenge in electrical stimulation of the retina with a visual prosthesis (bionic eye) is to excite only the cells lying directly under the electrode in the ganglion cell layer, while avoiding excitation of axon bundles that pass over the surface of the retina in the nerve fiber layer....
