I've found no reason to have an implanted commlink, cybereyes, spurs, datajacks or other cyber weapons. All they do is cost more essence and :nuyen:.
Goggles:
Decked out with everything on the list at it's max rating.
2,225 :nuyen:.
Cyber eyes: Full system. Rating 4. No Ocular drone or Retinal Duplication.
10,850 :nuyen: 0.5 Essence
Cost Ratio Eye to Goggle approximately 4.9

Is there a reason to go cyber when you can?
