Holy Shit, A possible cure for blindness has been found: Artificial Corneas.. - Polidicks

[QUOTE=ColdWave;24374285]My avatar says that game has many things to do with that statement.[/QUOTE] Because some obscure game invented the big crunch theory :downs: [editline]01:16PM[/editline] [QUOTE=ASmellyOgreV2;24378344] From what I've seen, people who were always blind have the same problem. The lights make no sense to them.[/QUOTE] Oh fuck you you reminded me of that terrifying B-Movie "The Man With The X-Ray Eyes." [img]http://static.flickr.com/51/138555937_68ae2166bb_o.jpg[/img] I think the scene where he sees the swirling cosmic horror is just. just nightmare fuel unbridled.

This is only for Corneal Blindness, not for people suffering Retinal Blindness. I have retinal blindness in my left eye, and I can tell you, reading these threads saying "LOOK, WE'VE CURED BLINDNESS USING CORNEAS" pisses me off to no end.

[QUOTE=Matt PL;24361789]A cure for HIV, cure for cancer and now cure for blindness? :wtc:[/QUOTE] Take that Jesus!

This is the same thing as organ cloning, but applied to the cornea. Nothing groundbreaking. Organ cloning is very possible.

cool

Holy shit. New science +1

She can't blind me with science anymore. hurrr

Only problem is the rate of blindness increasing because the fucking stupid children/rednecks/losers are buying powerful laser pointers, basically someone can go out in public and ruin lives because they are too stupid to handle them. Anyone complaining about their country having laser laws is stupid.

Sure you could punch someone in public but you will probably get caught and the victim will know what happened, but if some dick wanted to he could blind 6 people and never get caught.

It has been a possibility ever since the single thought of a cyborg/replacement body part, but it is just now that the technology is possible. :eng101:

Luckily i will now live inside a giant metal container with a power supply powered by oxygen and an internet connection.

I would [I]sssooooooo[/I] get an eye replaced with an electronic infrared/computer interface eye.
