Second Sight Medical Products (EYES) said Friday the Food and Drug Administration has approved the Argus 2s retinal prosthesis system in patients with retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic eye disorder that can cause vision loss.
The Argus 2s is a redesigned set of external hardware for use in combination with previously implanted artificial retina, the Argus II system.
The company said it expects the Argus 2s to be adapted as the external system for the Orion visual cortical prosthesis system, which is currently under development.
