The polycarbonate lenses of the glasses will feature an optical coating that will remove the wavelengths of light between the colors red, green and blue. This will eliminate the overlap between the red and green cone cells and allow the colors that do get through to be amplified, reducing the effects of red/green color blindness. The sturdy polycarbonate lenses will also make the glasses safe for wearing during sports or other athletic activities.

The vision implants will let some people do away with reading glasses by automatically adjusting to bring near objects into focus. The vision implants will be implanted in just ten minutes using topical anesthesia. The key to the technology will be the inlay, an extremely thin ring with an opening in the center that will be placed beneath the surface of the cornea. The inlay will be able to adjust automatically to focus the light entering the eye - much like a camera's aperture -...

A new digital system that will allow the visually-impaired to 'read' graphs could provide them with more learning and employment opportunities while also making day-to-day business a bit easier. The system will provide a way for the visually-impaired to read the graphs and statistics that are so commonly used today. The device will use pattern recognition, machine learning and segmentation methods to identify blocks of texts or pictures and arrange them in the proper reading order....

A retinal implant that translates camera images into pulses the brain can understand could offer new treatments for vision loss. The system features a set of tiny cameras mounted to a pair of glasses. The camera's digital information is sent along a wire to a micro-fabricated thin film implanted in the back of the patient's eye, where the electrical signals stimulate the retinal nerves. The system is sealed well enough to prevent water vapor from entering the device, which...

Goggles able to display information about the area with color-coded outlines will make it easier for partial-sighted people to move through their environments. Visually impaired people often struggle with discerning contrast and depth. The new goggles will feature a pair of cameras mounted on a virtual reality headset and connected to a very small computer. The cameras will scan the area ahead of the wearer and convert the information to digital code sent to the computer. Using an...

The new glasses will allow the user to change their refractive power, making it easier to provide corrective eyewear to people in developing nations. The inexpensive glasses will consist of a pair of fluid-filled lenses with flexible membranes. The wearer will use a small detachable pump to add or remove fluid from the lenses, adjusting their refraction to suit their need.

A new contact lens will be able to deliver anesthetic over an extended time in uniform doses, providing better comfort for post-eye surgery patients. The lenses will be created specifically with laser eye surgery patients in mind. The dosing them with vitamin E will extend the time of release of 3 common anesthetics from 2 hours to a whole day. The vitamin E will also function as a barrier, keeping the medication on the eye.

The idea is to develop a new eye test device for children that will use cartoons and games to simplify eye exams. The system will able to screen the child's eyes while they watch a short cartoon or play a video game. The device will use infrared light to gather data, and the assessment will be available within one minute. The test will also work without the need for eye dilation or verbal responses from the child.

This will be cool to have an eyeglass holder for men and women that will be small, strong, and simple. The holder will go on the outside, and the magnet on the inside. They will find each other with a click.

The idea is to develop a contact lens able to wirelessly monitor and report the blood sugar level of the wearer. The contact lens will work through enzyme-based electrochemical process, which will be able to measure the glucose levels in tear fluid. Small radios will interact with the sensor to wirelessly transmit the data, eliminating the need for daily monitoring by needles.
