Still Waters Posted March 21, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Contact lenses sharpen our blurry vision, and free us from the hassle of pushing sliding glasses back up our noses. But the future of contacts is nigh: Researchers have created a super-thin infrared sensor that could lead to the development of night vision contact lenses. http://blogs.discove...n/#.UyxdL84ngdU 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calibeliever Posted April 7, 2014 #6 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I can see a lot of applications for this. It would be cool if they figure how to make it switch modes from light to dark so they can be worn in multiple environments. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twin Posted April 7, 2014 #8 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Short of a perfect solution, but strong light problem can overcome by wearing a single lens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
