    How would you power them without a battery? It doesn’t matter if it’s really power efficient if it isn’t getting any power.

      Wirelessly. Like an NFC tag.

      Not saying it would be super practical but if you custom shaped them you could put a wire coil around all of the non seeing parts of the eye.

        Just make it sodium based, and a good crying jag will replenish the battery.
