Scientists using special laser technology have crafted a pair of mini-spectacles (2 mm) and placed them on the head of a housefly.
This photograph is part of a science photo exhibit being held in Munich, Germany from March 20 to 25.

UPDATE 31/Mar/2006: An old Micreon press release explains the rest.
So, how does the fly get correction for its many other eyes? :-)
