Microchip Eye Implant Promises To Restore Sight

Anguirel writes "The BBC is reporting that a microchip implanted in the eye could restore sight. The chip has already been tested in some animals and seems to work. Researchers hope to begin tests in humans in 3 years. Present generation is fairly limited in scope, but this could pave the way for cybereyes in the future." A search for retina shows some of the other research going on in this field, too.
