For a change, you admit I am right! Now I need to convince you I am
right about everything else. You are wrong about a human eye's
capability. Now im not saying every eye is capable of 20/4 but a few
are once you remove all aberrations and imperfectations. The fact
remains that 100% of healthy eyes are capable of at least 20/12 vision
and almost 100% are of 20/10. About 50% are capable of 20/8 or 20/7.
Fewer still are capable of 20/6. Very few are capable of 20/5 and
extremely few of 20/4. There is already testing that can determine what
my eyes would be capable of without a single aberration or flaw. I
would only be limited by my retina's quality and rod/cone density and
spacing. But ive read that theres already research underway to fix
that, they talk about improving the retina or transplanting a 2mm
section of modified retina. With that, they talk about vision of 20/2
or as good as an eagle! We will see something like that happen within
our lifetimes and its highly possible I will too experience 20/2 or at
least near that vision many years from now. I cant even imagine how
freaking clear and amazing it would be!
