Research Projects

retinal prosthesis Optoelectronic Retinal Prosthesis - Optoelectronic system for restoration of sight to the blind, based on patterned electrical stimulation of retinal neurons.
Pulsed Liquid Microjet
Minimally-traumatic Laser Therapy - A new method of retinal photocoagulation using Pattern Scanning Laser (PASCAL). In this approach patterns of multiple pulses are applied during the eye fixation time (under half a second) using a scanning laser with pulse durations in the range of 10-30 ms.
avalanche knife

Pulsed Electron Avalanche Knife - Microsecond-pulsed plasma-mediated electrosurgical system for traction-free dissection of soft tissues with sub-cellular width of the collateral damage zone.

Artificial Cornea

Artificial Cornea - An artificial cornea, or keratoprosthesis (Kpro), has great potential to benefit millions worldwide who are blind due to corneal disease.
