You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

It's still on the testing stage. An international clinical trial is now testing the prosthesis system.
So far 18 patients across the world have been fitted with the bionic eye - developed by US company Second Sight.

The bionic eye may not be able to help its user read fine text yet but it is a very promising sign for the future. So far the implants have been stable and functioning for six months. There are still another two years of the trial to run.
