Contact Lens


Many European scientists came up with an idea of wearing contact lens ,to have a clear eye sight. They developed this concept at the early stages of 18th century itself. Later plastic lenses were introduced in which lenses will cover the cornea part, to get a better visibility and plastic on remaining portion of the eyesight. Since this is quite big to wear on their eye ,people preferred glasses at that time. Even in spectacles ,bifocal lenses got very popular trend to wear. The frames were made light in weight and very thin ,so that it looks so fashion and suitable for that person. Even though lens came on 1950s itself, people were afraid to wear this lens because, each time you should pick the lens and place it on the eye surface. This might be difficult for old age people to wear. But it is highly beneficial for the middle aged and probably more for the working persons. Soft contact lens is flexible and comfortably to wear it. Now days ,contact lens is available in a wide a variety of designs that makes people who were wearing it, look different. People who has short sight or long sight , can wear this soft contact lens. It requires less maintenance when compared to spectacles.
