Google Patents Injectable Vision Correction Device
May-01-16
Google has filed a patent for an “intra-ocular device” that would improve vision by injecting the device directly into the eyeball.

According to the patent, the device would include an electronic lens contained within a fluid that would be injected into the eye to attach to the eye’s lens capsule (the transparent membrane that surrounds the lens). The device would contain an array of components besides the lens, including sensors, storage, battery, and radio transceiver. After the device is injected into the eye, it will attach to the membrane, where it will communicate with its sensors and an external device to help light focus onto the retina more accurately.
