Incredible achievement! Fair play to him, hope he does brilliantly.

Fair play to him.
When will he qualify to play for Italy at an international level?

Re: Ian McKinley joins Zebre
Will he be able to play away matches? Because he wasn't cleared to play in the goggles over here as of last season

"Thanks to the tenacity and his passion for rugby, the opening has returned to play in March 2014 thanks to the special goggles "Rugby Goggles" produced in Italy by the Bologna Raleri commissioned and approved on an experimental basis by the International Federation World Rugby"
From Donny's link
However with the IRFU not taking part in the trial of the new technology, it’s unclear whether or not McKinley can play for Zebre when they take on Connacht in Galway on October 16.

Hope it goes well for him.
And that other unions look at allowing the use of the goggles if they are proving successful.

Came on about 5 minutes ago at full back. Already made one half-break and beat a couple of defenders.
