About

ReVision Implant is a Belgian neurotechnology startup established in 2020 by Frederik Ceyssens and Peter Janssen. The company is dedicated to developing the Occular, a groundbreaking prosthesis designed to restore useful vision to blind individuals. This ultra-high resolution visual prosthesis utilizes implants with thousands of microelectrodes and advanced stimulation algorithms to transmit video images directly to the visual cortex, bypassing damaged eyes or optic nerves. The Occular system aims to provide grayscale vision at over 1000 pixels of resolution, significantly enhancing performance compared to previous visual prostheses. ReVision Implant has successfully conducted animal tests and is preparing for its first-in-human clinical trials. The company benefits from collaborations with KU Leuven University and support from various funding sources, including the Flemish government and the European Research Council. Its advisory team comprises experts in neuroscience, neurosurgery, and business strategy, all focused on improving the quality of life for individuals with severe vision loss.
