Lao Ma also nodded and smiled: "It's not expensive, but it's not cheap either. But compared to restoring the light, the price can be said to be very cheap."
It is indeed very cheap. The price of each smart bionic electronic prosthetic eye is 100,000 yuan, which seems very expensive. But in terms of medical equipment, it can be said to be very cheap. Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about an ENT device.
Cochlear implants are very expensive. Domestic ones cost hundreds of thousands, while imported ones range from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands.
But when you talk about technology, it's actually just like that. Compared with this kind of intelligent bionic electronic prosthetic eye, it is definitely incomparable. So the price of 100,000 yuan can be said to be a blessing.
After all, compared to ears, the role of eyes in normal life is too important.
"The main reason is the research and development cost, which accounts for the majority. However, as the usage increases in the future, the price is expected to be further reduced."
Wu Hao said with a smile: "Compared with the cost of a single smart bionic electronic prosthetic eye, its treatment cost is actually higher. The related preliminary examination, surgery, and post-treatment costs may cost hundreds of thousands."
Hundreds of thousands, and depending on the charging standards of different hospitals in different regions, this cost may rise."
Hearing Wu Hao's words, the three of them nodded. This is a fact. The cost of hospital treatment is indeed a big one. Of course, there is no way to solve this. Charity can be carried out through foundations and volunteers.
In this way, the cost will be relatively reduced a lot.
I think it can be done. Lao Ma said loudly: "Just like the charity activities we did in the past to treat children with heart disease and save children with cleft lips.
As long as this technology can be launched as soon as possible and the product can be put on the market, we can work together."
Brother Xiao Ma nodded, then looked at Wu Hao and said, "When will this smart bionic electronic prosthetic eye be officially launched?"
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head when he heard this: "It's really hard to say. We need to conduct relevant clinical trials to test the safety, reliability, and related performance of this technology. Only then can we submit a marketing application to the relevant national departments and obtain approval.
Only after approval can it be put on the market for sale.
Generally speaking, this process is relatively long and may take four to five years. However, we are confident that we can control it to complete the entire process within two years and achieve conditional listing.
In fact, our Phase 1 clinical trial has already begun."
Oh? After hearing his words, the three of them couldn't help but be surprised.
Brother Xiao Ma asked: "Has it been applied to patients?"
Wu Hao nodded and said: "We passed the screening and selected a 24-year-old young male patient. This patient suffered a facial injury when he was seventeen years old due to playing with fireworks and firecrackers, and became blind in both eyes.
After so many years of treatment, Shouchuang's face has gradually returned to normal through plastic surgery. However, the eyes that were destroyed by the explosion are still two holes, and artificial eyeballs (prosthetic eyes) are smartly worn to cover up the ugliness.
The explosion caused the patient's eyes to be severely burned and exploded, so the hospital had to remove them. Therefore, if there were no other means, the patient would be blind for life.
We found this patient and introduced our relevant technologies and experimental requirements to them. Although the patient's family had some doubts, with the patient's strong will, they finally agreed to conduct a clinical experiment.
We also promise that after the experiment is over, the intelligent bionic electronic prosthetic eye implanted in the patient's orbit will be given to him free of charge."
Hearing his introduction, the three of them nodded and smiled. This is great news for this young blind patient, like pie in the sky. Although there is a certain risk, if you can borrow
If he gained a pair of "eyes" and regained his sight, An would undoubtedly change his life.
Was it successful? Tao Zhengyang asked hurriedly.
Haha, Wu Hao smiled and said: "Because this patient's eyes were severely damaged, it took a long time to remove the eyeballs, so we need to perform some surgical repair on his eye sockets first. We will not start until the repair reaches the standard.
Brain-computer connection devices were implanted at the bottom of the orbits of both of his eyes.
The whole process lasted for about three months, and it was still very unsatisfactory. This patient was very strong. In order to regain his sight, he worked hard to cooperate with our doctors and researchers. During the treatment, he also endured a lot of pain.
pain of.
After he recovered to our requirements, we immediately installed a smart bionic electronic prosthetic eye for him. After putting it on, he could feel the light immediately.
This alone made the patient, including his parents and family members cry with excitement and excitement, because for them, this was tantamount to hope.
The patient's parents and family actively cooperated with the subsequent treatment, recovery and related experiments. Even the patient's parents, in order to thank the doctors, nurses and scientific researchers who treated his son, sent them meals and snacks every day. Now a deep friendship has been formed.
friendship."
Having said this, Wu Hao took out a mobile communication device that was about the same size as a smartphone. However, compared to the previous exclusive customized mobile communication device, it was much more ordinary. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wu Hao opened it with his hands.
, I saw that this mobile communication device that looked like a mobile phone actually unfolded like a folding screen mobile phone.
However, compared to the folding screen phones on the market, the one in Wu Hao's hands is obviously more advanced.
First of all, the folding screen device in Wu Hao's hand has a large unfolding area. If it is closed, it looks like a 5.8-inch mobile phone, and it is very slim, which is the thickness of an ordinary mobile phone.
But when Wu Hao unfolded it, this folding screen device with a mobile phone actually unfolded into a transparent screen about 12 or 3 inches in size and the size of a tablet.
When unfolded, the entire device is very slim, only about two to three millimeters on average. The entire device is folded three and a half times in total. Except for a handheld black border with a width of about three to four centimeters, the other parts are transparent screens.
The transparent screen part is wrapped by a thin metal edge, which looks very sci-fi.
In the black-bordered area inside the Holder 34, a variety of devices, including cameras and batteries, including chip integrated circuits, are integrated here.
Looking at the folding device in Wu Hao's hand, everyone's eyes couldn't help but shine. Especially Tao Zhengyang, his eyes were fixed on the device in Wu Hao's hand and he couldn't move away at all. It felt like a robber
