Novelty Contact Lenses

Contacts have evolved to be more than objects that help us see, such as the novelty contact lenses. Originally glasses were created to help nearsighted and farsighted individuals see. The history of the concept of contact lenses is quite long. The first concept was in the 1500s, though it would take 300 years before the first lens was successfully made. FE Muller is credited with the 1887 creation of the first contact lens. Yet, it would take until 1949 for the actual contact lenses to be developed that were worn. They were a combination of glass and plastic, making them light and more comfortable. Glass permeable lenses as they are called were thick plastic lenses or hard lenses. They were unbendable.

This type of lens was typical until the 80s when disposable, thin plastic lenses were created. Today most people wear soft contact lenses for their malleable nature and comfort. With the invention of this newer contact more than 5 million people began to wear them. It also opened up avenues for further use of contacts where people without prescriptions want them.
