    They should add a zoom function - how awesome would that be!?

    So much this! Well, actually I'd much rather prefer to have zero connectivity on lenses (glasses would be even better, but having both would cater to everyone) and just have optical improvements.

    so first they poison us with there sugars then bring out the cure ..or health benefits ...
    business as usual then ..
    it's always sheeple to the slaughter
    What does it matter now if men believe or no?
    What is to come will come. And soon you too will stand aside,
    To murmur in pity that my words were true

    Wouldn't be too hopeful about this tbh. Even if Alcon/ Novartis do develop this, you will never be able to get it, what with their current delivery model for medication. Damned nightmare.
