I'm sorry to hear about your hearing. From what I've heard, hearing aids help but they are not a satisfactory solution. So if you still feel something is wrong, then the way you feel is what matters.
There's nothing wrong with my vision because I wear glasses. I like my glasses. I consider glasses to be a satisfactory technology that solves the problem I used to have before I got them. I see myself as one with the technologies I use. If someone thinks I should adopt the GE technology instead of the optical glassware technology, then fine, but no one has the right to tell me I have a problem.
Ideally what I'd want are glasses that let me see the things normal people can't see, like electromagnetic radiation other than the narrow part of the spectrum for visible light, such as infrared, gamma rays, and hidden colors, etc. Superhuman vision would be real progress imho and a whole lot less creepy than what's being proposed here.
- kortilla 4y agoThey are called “corrective lenses” because they are correcting your flawed vision. You have a problem you address with glasses. It’s no different than any other medical technology to address a life altering flaw. You can be happy with the solution, but there is still something wrong with your eyes. Someone offering a solution that actually fixes your eyes shouldn’t be offensive and you most certainly shouldn’t be discouraging it. It’s like someone getting in a huff about a diabetes cure because they see their insulin needle as a part of themself.
