It's amazing how many things we saw in science fiction shows and movies are now real or will be real in 5-10 years.

You do realize, "THE SUN" is the Brit equivalent of "The Enquirer."  Garbage in .. Garbage Out.

Oh good lord.  THREE different sources of garbage information do not make it Gospel.  It (The Bionic Eye) is a Science fiction Pipe dream.  Are there folks trying to make one??  Sure.  In our lifetime ??  Currently there is not even a dream of being able to hook one up to the brain.

Some may consider a bionic eye from what they see in the movies, but for those who are blind or have some form of vision loss, can be implanted with a form of bionic eye to help them see better.

This from JAMA, Journal of  the American Medical Association:
