Hello friends. Today marks the start of a long Labor Day weekend for those of us living in the U.S. and today, we are excited to inform you that Second Sight Medical has received conditional approval from the FDA to begin the Orion Cortical Visual Prosthesis System feasibility clinical study. The conditional approval allows two U.S. sites to enroll up to five total patients. The FDA has also requested that the Company conduct additional device testing and address outstanding questions. Second Sight has 45 days to respond to FDA's requests. 

Blind patients interested in the Orion clinical trial can contact Second Sight customer service at 1-855-756-3703.
