The Evolution Of Contact Lenses And How You Benefited
Believe it or not, contact lenses didn’t seem very much different than their glasses counterpart, that is, they were really made of glass! While Leonardo Da Vinci is sometimes credited with dreaming up the thoughts of using contacts, the first wearable contact wasn’t made until hundreds of years later by a German eye doctor (named Adolf Gaston Eugen Fick, if you care). These glass monstrosities really worked, but were made by real glass and could only be worn for, at most, a few hours. The evolution of contact lenses has progressed far since then.
