Here is an extract of the Discover award announcement. I would assume that the award for "Sight" goes to MVIS, though the new release does not mention MVIS specifically.

ORLANDO, Fla., June 6 /PRNewswire/ -- On June 6th, 1998, forty-five of the best new technologies in the world were honored in the Ninth Annual Discover Magazine Awards for Technological Innovation.
All winners and finalists will be featured in Discover Magazine's special July 1998 Awards.
And the winners are: .....
SIGHT: A device that takes us beyond virtual reality by directing three different colored laser beams onto a person's retina. The image is directed and retained by the eye, allowing surgeons, for example, to view X-rays while operating, or mechanics to have a hands-free view of a manual while working.
The finalists were selected from among over 4,000 nominees by Discover's own editorial panel. The winners are selected by a distinguished and diverse panel of judges, including film critic Gene Siskel, singer Ray Charles, astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Wally Schirra, and professional race car driver Danny Sullivan.
