I would be really interested in the visual correction opportunities offered by this kind of technology. I suffer from a rare cornea disease called Pellucid Marginal Degeneration that results in a very disfigured cornea. It would be amazing to have a pair of glasses that scan your cornea for abnormalities, and then adjust the angles at which photons hit your eye in a way that "cancels out" the astigmatic abnormalities.


That is what I am interested in too.

I have 3 diopters astigmatism. Or more, the optometrists have trouble measuring it, their measurement fluctuates between 2.5 and 3.5 diopters. If the glasses just slip a little, I can hardly read anything.

I hope I do not develop anything worse. My father had keratoconus.
