| Jun 28 at 4:28 | comment | added | hobbs | @Matthew I can't say with certainty, but given what we know about the VISOR's capabilities (see the quote in Andrew's answer) I think it's much more likely that it's about the ability to see things outside the visible spectrum rather than about simple field of view. Geordi enjoys that advantage he gets as compensation for his disability, and uses it to good effect in his engineering job. | |

Given it wraps around his head, it's very possible the VISOR has better-than-human field of view, whereas implants would obviously be limited by skull anatomy in that respect. | |
