There was a character in some William Gibson book who had mirrored sunglasses implanted around her eyes. That would be a pretty cool look - for someone other than me.

I don't remember if it got into how she managed tears, eye gunk, and discarded lashes...

I remember the same book. She didn't like people touching her implants because the fingerprints were a pain, and someone ended up going for her implants in a fight. There were an achilles heel.

That was Molly, the book was Neuromancer. If I remember correctly, her tear ducts were routed back into her mouth, so instead of crying, she spit.

This guy should stay away from pullover sweaters.
