Encoding the Photoreceptors of the Human Eye

This review aims to assess the anatomy of the human eye with a focus on exploring opportunities to mimic certain functionalities of photoreceptors in the optical system. This can help restore vision issues in people who had normal vision earlier, but their vision was impaired due to reasons that dam...

description This review aims to assess the anatomy of the human eye with a focus on exploring opportunities to mimic certain functionalities of photoreceptors in the optical system. This can help restore vision issues in people who had normal vision earlier, but their vision was impaired due to reasons that damaged parts of the eye; however, the functionality of the optic nerve remained intact. It is a conceptual article where the methodology to simulate artificial photoreceptors is discussed.
