This got me thinking about whether "fly-by-wire" vision will ever be viable (or preferable) to human vision and how various sight impairments would be dealt with using such a system. Certainly myopia would be a trivial fix since the image could be placed directly in front of the eye, but how would you correct for hyperopia without a convex lens between the eye and the display?

I hardly see that as even a problem :)

prescription displays? Sounds like a big profit winner.

Now that's a great idea for us vision-impaired geeks; reason enough to own a pair

With a holographic combiner.

We already use Fly By Wire Vision in some cases, even with the engineering drawbacks of current devices: namely night vision for the military.

Contact lenses mandatory for users with impaired vision?
