Contact Lenses

“If eyes were made for seeing then beauty is its own excuse for being”. This line taken from the poem “Rhodora” simply puts that our eyes are as important as the other senses in appreciating beauty. But how on earth can anyone be grateful for the beauty all around when one has an eye problem? Nearsighted or farsighted eye defects hinder anyone from using the eyes to their full extent.

Before contact lenses came, the refraction problem of the eyes was remedied using graded eyeglasses or spectacles. But with the inconvenience that eyeglasses bring, contact lenses or “contacts” were born. Contact lenses provide better vantage vision among users since they are worn jus on top of the eye’s cornea. They are unaffected with the changing weather conditions especially during wet ones. No wonder why they have gained mass appeal because wearing them doesn’t make anyone look older as the eyeglasses caused. They are proven to be more advantageous especially those who are engaged in sports much more on athletic competition. Contact lenses have two different types, the hard contact lenses and the soft ones.

Today contact lenses come in different colors and designs. They do not only serve to correct vision problem, they are used for aesthetic purposes as well. Many people are now using and have benefited from the use of contact lenses. But do these people know that it was actually Leonardo Da Vinci who has given his successors the idea of correcting eye problem, though his project was not intended to do the same.

Many famous scientists following Da Vinci had made their respective studies that concern the eyes. The likes of Rene¢ Descartes, Thomas Young, and John Herschel have at one point made a study with the eyes either for eye accommodation mechanism or to correct vision problems. It was Adolf Eugen Fick who successfully made and wore the first hard contact lenses that were made from rather heavy material that measures in diameter 18-21mm.

With the aim to make contact lenses more convenient to use, polymer-based substance were utilized to produce soft contact lenses. Otto Wichterle has just made himself popular with his works on soft lenses that are made of hydrogel. The success of the invention has made the manufacture of soft contact lenses through out the world. They are proven to be more convenient to use compared to the first versions of contact lenses.

Today contact lenses come in different classifications. Others are categorized according to its usage while some fall under according to the materials used. Other classifications include the length of time the lenses were used and the focal points needed.

Wearing contact lenses can enhance better vision and truly make anyone to appreciate what beauty is as far as the eyes can see.
