Fig. 5 — a Echography of three minipig eyes. Images are from MP9–11. b Axial view of the standard POLYRETINA (top) and the POLYRETINA adapted to the ellipsoidal eye of Göttingen minipigs. The POLYRETINA is identified by the red line in both sketches. The black circle is the standard human eye (24 mm), and the black ellipse is the eye of Göttingen minipigs. c Three-dimensional model of the parts in poly(methyl methacrylate) used to produce the curved support by cast moulding. d Sketch of the cross-section of the curved support adapted to the minipig eye. The red lines correspond to the red line in b. The curved support has two indentations of 0.5 mm to identify the locations for the retinal tacks. e Three-dimensional model of the bonding setup. f, g Picture of the curved support (f) and the POLYRETINA (g) with the curvature of the curved support highlighted in red, showing that the curvature is not altered after bonding.
