[quote] A group of biohackers say they’ve figured out a way to inject our eyeballs with night vision, or low-light vision anyway. The procedure has allowed one superhuman to temporarily see over 50 meters (164 feet) in the dark, Mic reports. [/quote]
[quote] First, Licina’s eyes were flushed clean and his eyelids were stretched out with a speculum (no blinking!). Then Tibbetts used a pipette to drop 50 microliters of a blackish solution—Ce6 mixed with saline, insulin, and dimethlysulfoxide (DMSO)—into his eyes. Specifically, he was aiming for the conjunctival sac, which should help carry the compound to the light-sensing retina. DMSO increased the permeability of the cells for better absorption. "To me, it was a quick, greenish-black blur across my vision, and then it dissolved into my eyes," Licina tells Mic. He then put protective lenses in his eyes to block out some light; sunglasses helped too.
After two hours, the team tested Licinia's newfound superpower in a dark field. At first, Licina was able to see hand-sized shapes about 10 meters (33 feet) away. In time, he was able to recognize symbols (like numbers and letters) as well as objects moving against different backgrounds at longer distances. [/quote]
Well that's kind of interesting
-
Cool!
-
There's also a new contact that gives vision 3x better then 20/20 and they're pretty cheap to but too
-
I'm a witcher so beat that
-
I don't want anything injected into my eyeballs thank you very much
-
This has already been done. Riddick anyone?

This sounds like disaster waiting to happen.
-
"Biohackers" makes me think this is fake.
-
That is badass.
-
Curious to see what the side effects are...
-
Biohackers? Can you have a cooler sounding profession?!
-
Great now I just need Shinigami eyes.
-
eye dropped in isn't an injection
-
Well damn.
-

Okay please don't rip on me for not knowing science, but I thought night vision has to do with the reflectors at the rear of the eye? That's why cat eyes and dog eyes all look demonic when you take pictures of them in the dark with the flash on?
