this something i've thought about a bit and wanted everyone's take on proliferation of cybernetically enhanced humans and wearable technology in star trek: discovery.
just off the top we have keyla detmer and her post-shenzhou look (maybe she lost an eye?):
Nah, she got them at Stanton.
Well he was born blind instead of getting it from an injury, illness or degenerative condition. There's probably treatments for those since they are repairing damage. Our current devices that can restore sight to the blind only works if that person had vision at some point, otherwise they can't because the brain doesn't know how to deal with the information. Geordi may have some sort on neutral implant allows him to have vision. The DISCO version just isn't internal, it works like those external brain interfaces.
We're apparently going to learn more about her this season.
the only thing we know so far is they're back to saying she's an augmented human. i hope they've made up their minds, but i also feel like an augmented alien would be more interesting.
