Implant lens to fix vision

My brother found this online a couple days ago, I wanted to share it to see what you guys thought about it. 

http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/ocumetics-bionic-lens-could-give-you-vision-3x-better-than-20-20-1.3078257

It looks like it might be a real product at some point, but I don't know how long it'll take to get to non-medical status. 

Spark notes version: Dr. Garth Webb created a lens implant/replacement that gives the person perfect vision. 

Most of the article is a bit sensationalized, but the few kernels of information sound interesting.
