[QUOTE]Originally posted by OnToMars: [QB] Right well, as for why Geordi still has the VISOR when seems likely that he had other options, I would imagine it's because being an engineer/scientist type person, he enjoyed the extra functionality the VISOR gave him over cloned eyes, what with the infrared and ultraviolet and particle-of-the-week seeing and all. I'm sure artificial eyes were available in his time, but perhaps not without the functionality that the VISOR gave him, at least until sometime before [i]First Contact[/i]. Then again, you would think that that sort of reasoning would come up at some point where he goes emo over being blind, either in [i]Insurrection[/i] or whatever the other episode was where he bitched about being blind. Also, while certainly not canon, I remember reading one of those Starfleet Academy books from way back in the day that featured Geordi at the Academy. They were sent to this low-grav planet for field excercises and a cadet on another team complained about Geordi having an unfair advantage over everyone else because of his extended eye sight. Geordi let the kid put on his VISOR and feel the "ice picks in the temple" feeling that Geordi apparently felt all the time, but dealt with. I don't know, I like it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
