I certainly know that blindness isn't binary as my neighbor while growing up was legally blind yet mowed her yard every day with a hand pushed mower. She used a giant magnifying glass a few inches from her eye to read. However, I understand and appreciate what you're getting at.
I'm specifically asking if they are going to go the extra mile and make this technology blind-accessible. The iPhone is extremely successful product for the blind for example because it has a well thought out alternate input mode that they spent a lot of time and effort developing.
If Google isn't going to actually add accessibility provisions in then this seems like rolling up to a environmental charity event in a custom Hummer.

Imagine these glasses being able to tell you what colour that shirt is; no more garish colour clashes for people with colour blindness. Or a bajillion other ideas.
