Using laser to induce nerve impulses has become a popular research issue in recent years. This paper summarizes main research progresses related to laser-induced auditory nerve response in the past seven years. The contents include the advances of laser-induced auditory nerve impulses in the cochlea, the effects of laser parameters and nerve tissue characteristics on the induced cochlear nerve impulses. Finally, this paper prospects the security of the laser-induced auditory nerve impulses, multi-channel laser stimulation, and the expansion of the scope of laser stimulation parameters.
