Researchers are developing a futuristic alternative to LASIK that reshapes the eye without lasers or incisions. Using mild electrical pulses and platinum contact lenses, they temporarily soften the cornea so it can be molded into a new shape. Early tests on rabbit eyes successfully corrected nearsightedness in about a minute while preserving the eye’s structure.

      Who exactly would you trust with creating a HUD for your eyes?

        Of course not, you silly goose!

        Why would we require a subscription when ads, and data collection produces greater revenue.
