Submission + - Bionic eye gives blind man sight (bbc.co.uk)
AmigaMMC writes: "A man who lost his sight 30 years ago says he can now see flashes of light after being fitted with a bionic eye.
Ron, 73, had the experimental surgery seven months ago at London's Moorfield's eye hospital.
He says he can now follow white lines on the road, and even sort socks, using the bionic eye, known as Argus II
I wouldn't go as far as claiming he regained his sight, but this certainly is a biotechnological breakthrough."
