The bionic eye?

SCOTTISH scientists are developing an electronic implant that will be capable of curing two of the most common forms of blindness.

Dr Keith Mathieson, from Glasgow University’s Department of Physics, is using digital camera technology to create the ‘bionic eye’.

He has developed a microchip that can replicate the role played by the retina, the sensitive lining at the back of the eye that converts light into a signal that is sent to the brain.

This would be truly amazing.
