Contact lenses are the result of an accidental discovery made during the Second World War. Ophthalmologist Harold Ridley noticed that despite acrylic plastic shrapnel shards becoming embedded in the eyes of fighter pilots, it did not appear to cause any harm. This finding eventually led to the creation of hard intraocular lenses for the treatment of cataracts. Over the years, new scientific discoveries have led to softer and more comfortable contact lenses. And now, research bringing together chemistry, biology and microelectronics is resulting in contact lenses that are straight out of scie...

However, one of the nice things about working from home is being able to watch TV while you are working. For many of us, the TV has become much more of a companion during the pandemic. One thing that continues to strike me is that we still seem to do these remote activities as we did when we met in person. Streaming and video conferencing tools we ...

Alongside improving your vision, a new smart contact lens design could monitor for conditions including diabetes, heart disease and stroke, a study has reported. Researchers from the UK, US and China developed the lens, which features a mesh sensor layer that can measure levels of light, temperature and even glucose in tears. The latter has use beyond monitoring for diabetes, the team said, with complications of stroke and heart disease closely related to disorders of blood glucose regulation.  The design, the team have said, does not impair the wearer's vision or ability to blink, and cou...

CES 2021: Electronic Contact Lenses Introduced, How Do They Work? Claiming to be "the only company to publicly display this capability to integrate display circuitry into modern, soft contact lens materials," InWith has pioneered integrating reliable circuits into hydrogel material, which allows them to expand and contract in the normal manufacturing process. Photo : InWith Corporation The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2021 has rolled out a plethora of brand-new technologies we have never heard. One of them the highlights of the show is when InWith Corporation introduced its first-ever e...
