HOW IT WORKS
What is ONA technology? How will it work?
This video will explore how the four key components of our design allow ONA technology to power vision in those with glaucoma.
The four components of ONA technology are:
​
-
The attaching mechanism
-
Impulse receivers
-
Impulse converters, and
-
Transmitters
​
These components work together by receiving visual impulses from photoreceptors in the retina. Then, they convert and transmit the impulses through the optic nerve and around the damaged neurons to allow them to successfully reach the brain.
​
The features of ONA technology are minimally invasive, resilient, and cost-efficient, which allow us to reach our ultimate goal of making ONA technology accessible to all people affected by glaucoma. Please see Our Design for an in-depth explanation of these components.
