Let's just agree to disagree like always how bout that?

Your eye muscles will continue to deteriorate untill you can no longer see anything. No thanks, I'd rather keep the eyes I was born with.You must be registered for see images
In an incredible feat of modern science and medicine, a new bionic lens for the eye currently in development would give humans 3x 20/20 vision at any age. Called Ocumetics Bionic Lens, the lens was developed by Dr. Garth Webb, an optometrist from British Columbia, Canada, who sought a way to optimize eyesight.
With this lens, patients would have flawless vision. No more glasses for driving or reading and no more invasive contact lenses either. Glasses will one day be a thing of the past.
The lens is surgically implanted too, meaning you can never get cataracts as the lens replaces that of your natural eye. Anyone over the age of 25 is ideal for the surgery.
"This is vision enhancement that the world has never seen before," says Dr. Webb "If you can just barely see the clock at 10 feet, when you get the Bionic Lens you can see the clock at 30 feet away."
The project has been in development for 8 years and has cost $3 million in research and development fees. His mission has become an obsession to free himself and others from glasses and corrective lenses. Webb has been saddled with glasses since he was in the second grade.
"My heroes were cowboys, and cowboys just did not wear glasses," Dr. Webb says.

Yeah that sideffect sounds as a posibility and it sounds gruesome.Your eye muscles will continue to deteriorate untill you can no longer see anything. No thanks, I'd rather keep the eyes I was born with.
It will probably be manifested/invented in that form too.To be honest I feel like there are side effects. Rather have it in glasses than surgically in my eyes.
Yep.Interesting.
