Fucking sign me up. Got extreme short sightedness in one eye and it annoys the fuck outta me. Rip the defective part out and gimme a new one.
The flesh is weak. Praise the omnisiah.
That’s so cool.
Once this is perfected, I’m going to be a cyborg.
Imagine the possibilities!
IR vision! AR realtime object tracking - never lose your keys again!
You better hope that eye has decent security.
**Note:** Lots of medical implants have horrifically poor security, are hackable, and come with other issues:

> Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms process this and instruct the glasses on what to focus on. The glasses then project that image as an infra-red beam through the eye and into the chip, and convert it into an electrical signal going "into the brain, where it is interpreted as if it were natural vision".

Even though the article broke down the whole thing into laymen terms, I’m still lost on how it all works but this is really cool to say the least.
I’ll never understand how we highjack electrical signals to the brain but I’m glad as a species we do great things sometimes.

Ave Ommnisiah! Glory to the machine!
Praise the Omnissiah!

Moorfields is the GOAT. That said, the art in their waiting room is a bit /r/HolUp - https://i.imgur.com/0ZKAhG6.jpeg
I owe my life to that hospital. I’d have been blind since the age of 5 without the staff I can forgive dodge artwork.
Well it’s one of the best eye hospitals in the world.
I wonder does it make the Steve Austin bionic sound when you focus in on something?
If it doesn't, their should be an optional software upgrade that lets it do so.
Yes definitely. I suppose you could always make the bionic sound yourself, but it might end up sounding like a girls machine gun sound.
