Official Title: Safety and Efficacy of the BrainPort V200 Device in Individuals Blinded by Traumatic Injury

Brief Summary: The BrainPort V200 Device is a wearable, non-surgical, prosthetic device intended for people who are profoundly blind. The BrainPort V200 translates images captured by a digital camera into electro-tactile stimulation presented on the user's tongue to perceive shape, size, location, and motion of objects within the environment. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and functional performance of the BrainPort V200 device in individuals who have been medically documented as blind, light perception or worse, due to a traumatic injury (cortical or ocular).
