Microchip that can be implemented into the back of the eye.

The microchip is implemented to restore the vision of the eye. The chip will receive the visual and also activate the electrodes which in turn will fire the nerve cells, which are used to carry the visual input to the brain. This will help the blind people the can even see things again and this will be implanted in the retina which can then bypass the damaged cells by directly offering visual input to the brain. This will help those who are legally blind after some injury.
