Eyeborg Phase II
Rob Spence is a filmmaker who lost his eye and decided to replace it with a wireless video camera. Personally, I think I'll leave this method to him. This man loves his art.

Andrew,
thanks for posting: pretty interesting!,
but my wife just advised me not to even THINK of going there...
(I lost my eyesight - left, thankfully - a few years ago
due to a suprachoroidal hemorrhage during a vitrectomy performed to
fix a retinal detachment,
one of those stupid 0.05%-likelihood events that
never happen to YOU - until they do)
Best

At least you have got an eye left, which is a good thing. :-)
My grandmother slowly went blind in both eyes (high eyeball pressure slowly killing off the optic nerve, nothing you can do) and she reliably tells me that blindness absolutely sucks. Everything else is working fine ... so hot chips will always be "wonderful".

There's also an added benefit:
I'm immune to the current 3D craze.
