That would be sweet. The lenses you were really talking about are still pretty amazing. Thanks for the info!

I don't believe that these lenses will be reprogrammable, but I may be wrong. They appear to be along the lines of a progressive type lens, which alows the wearer to see from distance to near, depending on where his or her eyes gaze through the lens. This new technology accomplishes the same thing, but does so regardless of where the patient looks through the lens. I do want to emphasize that I actually know very little beyond the basic concept and am anxious to learn more when they hit the market. Electric is a company that makes sunglases and goggles and not associated with the lenses mentioned in my blog post. Thanks again! Thanks for your comment.

Also, I bought this pair of sunglasses the other day on an eye-health oriented deal of the day site (woot.com) called Electric KO, do you think they may be the first to actually make electric lenses? The name is probably just to sound cool, though, and not indicative of their passion for optics. Very cool photoshop job!! You had me fooled for a second.
