A team of scientists have found a way to inject people’s eyes with night vision. You're probably thinking the same thing we are... WHY?!

A group of independent researchers announced this week that they've successfully induced night vision in a human test subject by injecting a liquid solution directly into the eyeball

 

The experiment was carried out by a group of so-called ‘biohackers’ in California called Science for the Masses.

They used a solution of a substance called Chlorin e6 (Ce6), which is found in some deep-sea fish and has light-amplification properties, and is also been used in cancer treatment research

The solution initially made his eyes turn black, before being absorbed in a few seconds and returning his eyes to their natural colour.

 

‘To me, it was a quick, greenish-black blur across my vision, and then it dissolved into my eyes'

The research group said that the man had increased his range of vision by around 50 meters and was able to identify objects in the distance with 100% accuracy

The effects of the solution lasted for “many hours” until his vision returned to normal.
