Bionic eye and Blindness - Page 4

I have a player that is taking two Bionic Eyes for a net gain of -1 points. The reason for this is "Blindness (Mitigator -70%)."

My question is this, should the -15 points for the mitigator be to the cost of the bionics eyes, or should they go under the player's disadvantages section and count towards the -30 I allow them to trade for character points?

Side Note: Saying you are blind without the bionic eyes is sort of ridiculous. It's like saying I'm blind without my normal eyes. "Yea, but if my bionic eyes get damaged then I'm blind!" Yea, me too! Maybe every character should qualify for Blindness -70% then, since we are all blind if our eyes get damaged.
