Elon Musk's Neuralink has invented a groundbreaking device called BLINDSIGHT that will allow people who are blind to see again. This includes those who have lost their eyes and optic nerves, and even those born blind. Musk announced this life-changing technology yesterday on his social platform, X.
BLINDSIGHT is a new technology that directly connects to the brain. Unlike other vision devices, this one doesn’t rely on eyes or optic nerves. Instead, it sends visual information straight to the brain, helping blind people see the world around them.
The device is implanted in the brain, where it sends signals to the visual part of the brain, called the visual cortex. For people who have lost their sight or were born blind, BLINDSIGHT will teach their brain how to process and “see” images for the first time.

Thousands of people have reacted to the news, with many expressing hope and excitement for what BLINDSIGHT could mean for the blind.
There are millions of blind people worldwide. This device could change their lives by giving them the ability to see. It will offer them new freedom, independence, and experiences they’ve never had before.
