88-year-old man sees for the first time in more than 50 years thanks to bionic eye
An 88-year-old man with retinitis pigmentosa becomes the second-oldest person in the U.S. to receive the Argus II bionic eye, regaining sight after more than five decades in darkness. He is learning to interpret the new visual input through therapy and hopes to use the device to improve mobility and enjoy everyday experiences again.
