Restorative sight device tested by Stein on patient
A report from Paris via the New York Sun describes Professor Stein’s device claimed to restore sight by transmitting images to the brain. Dr. Cave recounts Stein testing on Cate in a dark room, opening vision briefly before the apparatus was removed and darkness returned. The article notes experts dispute the mechanism, comparing it to a telephone with light.
