TL;DR: Disability tech company working on eye implants goes bankrupt and shuts down without telling any of their patients or having any continued support or maintenance for the implants. As a result, many of their patients are now without vision again. Their $500k eye implants can't be removed without risking their health, but also can cause adverse effects if left in, and also prevent patients from getting MRIs for brain tumors and such.
true, true. good point.
