Artificial electrical stimulation of the nervous system is one of the foundations of neurotechnology. However‚ the use of electrical currents to stimulate the nervous system presents several challenges. It is difficult to achieve selective stimulation of only the targeted neurons without activating neighboring neurons. Further‚ electrochemical reactions at the electrode-tissue interface may lead to electrode dissolution or tissue damage. As an alternative‚ magnetic stimulation can be used to stimulate

” Our vision starts when you look at an object; the light from it enters your eye through the pupil. The iris changes the size of the pupil depending on how bright the light is. The lens focuses the light onto the back of the eye: the retina. The retina is a mass of light –sensitive neurons‚ called photoreceptors‚ which change light signals into electrical ones (Feldman 89‚ Bradford G. Schleifer. “Seeing Clearly”.

The exact pathophysiology of glaucoma is not fully comprehended but experts believe that the rise in pressure on the retina causes cells and nerve ganglions in the retina to die. Moreover‚ compression of small blood vessels occur in the retina and this deprives it from its nutrients. This contributes to loss of peripheral visual field and eventually the person may become blind. Etiology of Glaucoma - A gland behind the upper
