Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 06/25/09
Lee SW et al. - LCP based flexible microelectrode arrays can be successfully applied as retinal prostheses. The results demonstrate that such electrode arrays are safe, biocompatible, mechanically stable, and can be effective as part of a chronic retinal implant system.

| Liquid Crystal Polymer is inert and biocompatible material that can provide hermetic sealing in vivo for a long time. Fabrication process is rather complicated compared to other well known materials such as polyimde and parylene, however, multilayer structure based on LCP shows good stability and less chance of dehiscence. LCP might be a good candidate for the base material of the various implantable ophthalmic devices. |
