Blind from berth here. Would not want! I am blind and blind is me. All though I am now 42 years old so learning to use a new set of eyes would be hard if not impossible. Having to take a bunch of pills for the rest of your life to stop your body from casting your eyes out of your face is not for me! This could be a grate thing for young kids that have had eye trauma or cancer. Your brain does not learn to use your eyes until the age of about 7 anyway so that could help in the brain learning to use the new eyes.

That's a good point. Similarly, there is resistance against cochlear implants in the deaf community. Side note: your writing is full of homophones (berth, grate, all though). While not a big deal, I would assume that modern NLP tools could fix that pretty reliably. Finally a solid use case for LLMs :)
