<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a visual sense regeneration auxiliary device which can obtain a wider range of visual field by keeping the electrodes in close contact with the retinas in a wider range thereof. <P>SOLUTION: In the visual sense regeneration auxiliary device for the regeneration of the visual senses by the electric stimulation of the cells making up the retinas with a plurality of stimulation electrodes set to contact the retinas, the substrate is arranged to form the plurality of stimulation electrodes thereon and at least a part where the plurality of stimulation electrodes are formed in the substrate is coiled in a spiral shape and made elastic and bendable to a certain extent. This can keep the individual electrodes in close contact with the retinas over a wider range to match the curved surfaces of the retinas. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
