CONTACT LENSE

This technology may well save millions of visions when applied globally. The lenses incorporate antiobiotic nanosilver particles to both monitor pressures inside the eye and direct micro agents to relieve these pressures. The contact lense shares similar structure to that of current day contact lenses. The structure uses 8 x 8 grid of nanosilver lines that yield 64 pressure points-each capable of scanning and reporting pressure activities within the eyes. The benefit is that user does not need to remember constantly applying medicines every once in a while, many patients with bad eyes have the tendency to forget their medicines that could had saved their vision in 6-12 months.
