Clearly you haven't spent enough time around engineers. There's a reason the laser warning sign says " do not use remaining eye to look at laser "

I watched the few first episodes and didn't hate it but wasn't really interested where it was going. Is it worth watching the rest?

First season is really good. Second is a bit hit and miss.

Huh. I would say literally the exact opposite.

Same. The second season the show really begins to stretch its legs.

Hemmer isn't really "blind" though, he just sees in a different way than humans do

Geordi isn't really "blind" though, he just sees in a different way than other humans do

Not directly related, but my favorite exchange about human eyesight...

(Lt. Commander Data) "Sir, Lieutenant La Forge's eyes are far superior to human biological eyes, true?"

(Capt. Picard) "M-hm."

(Lt. Commander Data) "Then why are not all human officers required to have their eyes replaced with cybernetic implants?"

(Lt. Commander Data) "I see. It is precisely because I am not human."
