Performance of ChatGPT in dental implant treatment planning: evaluation using the modified DISCERN, Global Quality Score, and accuracy-safety score.

Simulation of prosthetic vision with the PRIMA system and enhancement of face representation.

OBJECTIVE: Patients implanted with the PRIMA photovoltaic subretinal prosthesis in geographic atrophy report form vision with the average acuity matching the 100 μm pixel size. Although this remarkable outcome enables them to read and write, they report difficulty with perceiving faces. Despite the pixelated stimulation, patients report seeing smooth patterns rather than dots. This paper provides ...
