Apologies if the article is behind a paywall, it is a NewsCorp site.

Basically it discusses the Minimally Invasive Retinal-degeneration Arrestor, which was developed by Bionic Vision Australia and is currently undergoing further trials. According to the article, the device is a quarter of the size of current bionic eyes and stimulates the retina, extending its life and hence the life of useful vision.

Bionic Vision Australia wrapped up at the end of December last year and the technologies it developed are now property of Bionic Vision Technologies Pty Ltd, who are commercialising them. You can read more about BVT's technology on their $1.
