Abstract: A sight regeneration assisting device for regenerating the sight of a patient comprises a plurality of needlelike electrodes each having a pointed distal end and being to be inserted in an optic papilla of a patient's eye in use; and a signal generator connected with the electrodes through a conductive wire to generate an electric stimulus pulse signal to be outputted from the electrodes, each of the electrodes, excepting a predetermined portion including the distal end, being coated with a coating layer made of resin exhibiting good biocompatibility and insulation, and the coating layer being formed with a turn-back retaining portion for retaining the electrode.
