    One thing that has bothered me in cannon was that he specifically stated he didn’t want ocular implants and jeep his visor in the show but when the movies rocked up suddenly he was implanted up.

    Now I’m not saying people xant change there mind but I found it jarring without the fuckit doc just cut me moment

      Owning glasses and refusing contacts, I kinda feel him after my 10th pair with bent up ear stocks.

        Oh I get it I’m exactly in the same place but 20 years.

        I think part of the reason I found it jaring was due to him being so adiment so often to the point he found it funny that he saved that colony based on some filter his vizor used for a colony that would never have let someone like him exist

          In universe reasons aside, those do not look like fun to wear on set when you’re trying to remember your lines and actions.

      I’m assuming the implants were more advanced after a decade or two of research. So whatever bothered him about implants was solved.

      IIRC, the implants didn’t function right for him so he stuck with the visor. I think it was mentioned that the tech had improved since he first tried, but he liked how his visor provided more visual info than the implants. I always assumed he just changed his mind when he got older and wasn’t crewing a starship.
