Abstract | Retinal pigmentosa (RP) patients lose vision due to the loss of photoreceptors. Retinal prostheses bypass the dead photoreceptors by electrically stimulating surviving retinal neurons, such as bipolar cells or retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). In previous studies, stimulus charge has been mainly optimized to maximize the RGC response to electrical stimulation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of amplitude and duration even under the same charge condition on eliciting RGC spikes in the wild-type and degenerate retinas. Wild-type (WT) Sprague-Dawley rats were used as the normal retinal model, and |
