    for enhanced night vision, most psychedelic drugs will dilate your pupils quite a bit.

    of course, this comes with the added complexity of not only seeing your night time surroundings better, but also seeing things which aren't really there, and differentiating between them while in an altered state.

    YMMV.

    Will it cost $6Million? I would not want Polarization as tilting your head would make LCDs blank. I've encountered some car dash electronics that are LCD based and with polarized glasses, you can't read them! (way to go Subaru Engineers).

    I would like the option to see a great spectrum. Infrared would be nice. Then I could hunt at night without any addons..

    Zoom vision! Someone invent zoom vision! I've always wanted to be able to zoom in on things far away, and be able to control it at whim. I'd trade my doomsday device for zoom vision!

    I would do it in a heartbeat, though I know quite a few people who would take advantage and hide my darkened goggles and shine a lamp on my face for me to wake up to.

    Nearsightedness is an advantage for people working with near field objects. We can see things at a much higher apparent magnification and clearly focus on things much closer than someone with normal eye sight. Of course the downside is that everything at a distance is a total blur. But that's what glasses and contacts are for. I am quite happy my eyes suck.

    In the last case, the paraplegic wasn't downgrading his vision, he was correcting is presbyopia, something which occurs later in life. His world would now mostly be near requirements, like reading/computer/tv (which would require more adequate near vision), and the surgery is improving his quality of life. So now he needs glasses for driving? I'm sure he won't mind.

    Laser vision correction was the best elective surgery I've ever had. Seriously, it is great, I got LASEK (not LASIK). Painful but I don't have to worry about a flap coming loose.

    Only downside, occasional dry eye that, I've heard, is exacerbated by weed. So I've heard.

    @The Lab: was your cornea too thin for Lasik?

    @Norbs: LASIK has a faster recovery time but the flap doesn't heal with the structural integrity of the original cornea, leading to a risk of the flap being dislodged by impact or eye rubbing. I play contact sports so that risk was unacceptable. Besides, who doesn't like a good eye rub now and then?

    @The Lab: Yeah I got LASIK and I rub the hell out of my eyes... it seems pretty solid but the contact sports thing might be worth the extra recovery time. I just asked because my bud got the same procedure you did because his cornea was too thin for LASIK.

    Be interesting to see what they come up with. And what price they stick on that controller. I'm assuming they will have bundles but I hope they don't cost over $70... Wishful thinking?

    @SirFenwick: I think the PS Eye is currently about $30, so $40 on top for one set of controllers and demo disc won't be too far out I'd guess. Just hope they sell the controllers in their own bundles too.
