Surgically-Implanted Contact Lenses Could Cure Host of Eye Problems
The technology is an attempt to combine the stiff plastic lenses that have been implanted in patients after cataract surgery for decades with the relatively newer, flexible intraocular lenses that correct near- or far-sightedness. The lenses would be implanted during a surgery similar to cataract surgery -- a small incision would be made in the eye and the natural lens removed, then the new "super" lens would then be inserted and the eye closed up without stitches.
The lenses are still five to ten years from hitting the market and are expected to cost less than $3,500 (though how much less remains to be seen). [From: Daily Mail]

This device concept has been inputted from an influence-network pool of responses demanded as the action of a telephone-caller network -- which means that it just as well could/should be written up as science fiction (i.e., a fiction made real). The same influence-network pool has initiated the 'Harry Potter Lexicon', as further example, and also the 'special' literary treatment of the life of Harry Potter already reamed and routed into the bookseller marketplace.
