This will be something like in "I Am Legend". Great at first, but it will spread cancer or something after a month or so.

Even if it doesn`t it will still be on the target of hackers. It`s better they invent glasses that do that.

"The scientists do have some problems to get through first, like transmitting power wirelessly to the lens"
......yea, that`s a big one.

Cool idea though, could b the next step in our cushy lifestyles ;)

"The lenses can also be used to improve our vision"

Yes unlike the current ones that just work on a placebo effect.

Instead of transmitting power to the lens, it`ll probably be easier to work on a nano-scale generator. If you can generate energy from blinking, maybe thru microscopic rollers on the lens surface, it could be completely self contained.

^ Agreed. There was an idea floating around a couple years ago, that the sidewalks in Times Square in New York would be outfitted with shock-absorbers that would transfer the physical energy from people walking into electrical energy to help power street lamps, billboards, stop lights, etc. It would`ve ended up saving the city as well as private companies millions of dollars in their energy bills.

If, like you said, they could create a nano-generator that feeds off the motion of the eye-lid or even the eye itself, you`d have yourself one hell of an invention.
