Pretty fascinating stuff, with clear benefits to both sides.
It's always good when they can get an opportunity to try an approach in a "realistic" scenario to see how it turns out, rather than in a lab.
Some does come across as a bit of "let's see what happens" with the eye transplant. I don't see how what comes down to "taking this end and hooking it up to that end" could be expected to work. It's not like plugging an extension cord in, clearly. Some very small-scale structures have to line up exactly right, if its even something that can be done. But I am not in this field, so maybe it is.
It's amazing to me that people do this sort of thing as part of their career ... literally taking off a person's face, "underlying skull", and all the other stuff. Left to continue work on a sight that many wouldn't be able to even glance at during the procedure. It's surreal. Not a job for me, but it's good that there are others out there that are able to do it.
