"Seeing is believing: the challenge and promise of the Bionic Eye"

 

Listen to Professor Robyn Guymer reflect on the research challenges of developing a bionic eye and the promise it holds for restoring sight.

 

Recently, Robyn Guymer presented the 2010 Gerard Crock Lecture to a sell-out crowd. Robyn is head of the Macular Research Unit at the Centre for Eye Research Australia (CERA) and is the Centre's Deputy Director. An internationally recognised AMD specialist, she leads the CERA team contributing to the Bionic Vision Australia research collaboration to develop an advanced bionic eye. Professor Guymer is responsible for the clinical and surgical program within the project.

 

The Gerard Crock Lecture is an annual event to honour the memory and contribution of Professor Gerard Crock AO (1929-2007), Australia's first Professor of Ophthalmology.
