Myth: Scientists have created a Bionic Eye.

Myth: Scientists have created a Bionic Eye.
Fact: Scientists have been working on a microchip to replace damaged retina cells in a person's central vision. Other scientists have been trying to figure out a way to connect a camera directly to the brain. The eye and the brain do not work the same way a camera and computer do. Even after someone figures out how to make a bionic eye, they still have to figure out how to connect it to the neural circuitry of the brain. What they have created so far is a crude form of vision consisting of several dots of light.
