The bionic Lens is a dynamic lens which replaces natural in an eye using the most ordinary transaction, kataraktalny surgery. After installation the lens recovers accurate sight at all distances with hardly any trouble at all in quality. She is capable to self-regulate, uniting to eye muscles, and thus is focused on different distances — and its range is potentially much wider, than everything that is able to afford ordinary sight. In addition only 1/100 energy which is necessary for an ordinary eye are spent for her, so, you will be able to be focused on something all day without any tension for eyes.
In September, 2017 it became known that the Canadian company Ocumetics Technology Corporation carries out clinical trials of the Bionic Lens, the medical device which can forever replace both points, and normal lenses. If everything goes smoothly, then the new lens will appear in an arsenal of eye surgeons and respectively in the opinion of patients in two years. And those capabilities which it will give to the person if to judge by press releases, are simply improbable[1].
Imagine that you look at the watch which stand in three meters from you, and it is clear, in parts are capable to consider them. With the Bionic Lens this distance as producers promise, will increase to 30 meters, and in very short distances it as speak, gives supercapabilities at all. If you fixedly peer at the finger brought to eyes, then will be able to make out even cells of skin.
Interestingly also the fact that future lenses are designed with the components allowing to modify and improve in the future a device, for example, to project phone screen on a retina, to increase even more resolution or to build in a system supply of medicine an eye if it is necessary.
Doctor Garth Webb, the chief inventor and the creator of the Bionic Lens, says that only its absence as it will give huge advantage to the owner will be its only shortcoming.
The device already has a price: 3200 dollars for a lens, apart from transaction cost. The lens will not solve all problems with sight: it will not be able to cure daltonism, muscular insufficiency, genetic diseases of a retina or injury of an optic nerve, but it will be able precisely to save the person from age deterioration in sight and also from far-sightedness and short-sightedness.
