Abstract

Although many approaches of diff erent visual prostheses showed promise, to date, Argus II Epiretinal Prosthesis System develo- ped over 10 years in the clinic, it is the world’s first and only FDA and CE-Mark approved retinal prosthesis for people blinded by late-stage retinitis pigmentosa. The incidence of serious adverse events decreased overtime after minor changes were made on the implant design, and improvements in the surgical steps. In or- der to further decrease the scleral incision-related complications and enhance the assessment of the tack position and the contact between the array and inner macular surface, we have used the ophthalmic endoscope during the regular course of Argus II imp- lantation surgery.

Özet

Çeşitli görsel protez yaklaşımları üzerinde çalışılmakla birlikte, Argus II epiretinal protez sistemi; son aşama retinitis pigmen- toza hastalarına uygulanan, dünyanın ilk CE ve FDA onaylarını almış ve 10 yıllık klinik sonuçları bulunan tek üründür. İmplant dizaynındaki minör değişikliklere ve cerrahi yöntemlerdeki geliş- melere bağlı olarak, ciddi komplikasyon ve yan etkilerin oranları zamanla azalmıştır. Pars plana skleral insizyonuna bağlı komp- likasyonları daha da azaltabilmek, çivi pozisyonunu ve array ile makülanın iç yüzeyinin temasını daha iyi değerlendirebilmek için, rutin Argus II implantasyon ameliyatı sırasında oftalmik mikroendoskopu kullandık.
