Futurama did it. Implanted vision devices have been a few years away, for decades. The nerve-wire interface isn't a simple problem.

Gibson did it in Neuromancer in 1984 and others before that. Even if the bio interface problem isn't solved, lightweight wearables that encompass all your vision and are super performant with a massive dev ecosystem and incredibly useful will be a reality in a couple decades.

It shows the technogical plateau we're in with iPhones mostly being the same form factor.
