The video above depicts Hester after trying out a new groundbreaking "bionic" eye device. The device works in conjunction with an implant he receive in his left eye in September. When the device is turned on, Hester is able to differentiate dark and light, but Hester won't be able to see with normal vision. However, Hester said in a recent interview that he was able to see enough that he could distinguish where his wife's face was and touch it. See the heartwarming video above.
