KATHMANDU: Indian Idol competitor Menuka Paudel has been given artificial intelligence (AI) smart vision glasses by the doctor.

Dr. Nitin and Rohan, two Indian ophthalmologists, presented Menuka the unique AI glasses during Sunday’s broadcast of Indian Idol.

Menuka donned the spectacles and did a demo on the reality show’s stage. Following the performance of Lata Mangeshkar’s song, the doctor walked on stage to give Menuka a pair of glasses.

The doctor gave glasses to Menuka as a ‘gift of sight’.

On that particular day, Menuka reported that she was able to read, recognize the person in front of her, move independently, and practice using the glasses.

The physician summoned all the judges and attendees to the platform and demonstrated the glasses. Menuka thanked Indian Idol and the doctor after donning glasses.

Menuka is competing in the top 10 in the ongoing season of Indian Idol.
