The Blindsight device from Neuralink will enable even those who have lost both eyes and their optic nerve to see.
Provided the visual cortex is intact, it will even enable those who have been blind from birth to see for the first time.
To set expectations correctly, the vision will be at first be low resolution, like Atari graphics, but eventually it has the potential be better than natural vision and enable you to see in infrared, ultraviolet or even radar wavelengths, like Geordi La Forge.
Much appreciated, @US_FDA!
School instilled a certain intellectual masochism in a lot of people: “the harder something is to read and understand, the wiser and truer it must be.” Reading doesn’t have to be tough to be rewarding, a good lesson shouldn’t need philosophy to teach it
