The eSight3 is $9,995.00 but of course we don't know what's in it. Unlike Vuzix who issued a PR touting how much $$$ they'll make off blind vets...

Guide Dog- $50,000 (granted with other benefits)
Gene Therapy for Blindness- $850,000
Total Economic Burden for Person with Low Vision per year- $26,900

Add Gov Benefits, Inability to work, Us Cost for Macular Degeneration in US cost approx. $16 Billion per year etc.

And of course an enhanced quality of life is the whole point. Anybody know any blind people? Anyone ever encountered them sitting in a dark room, listening to a radio, no different, worse than being imprisoned in Solitary Confinement. Convicts get 3 hots and a cot.
