Scientists have developed 'night vision' contact lenses that enable wearers to see in the dark. The futuristic technology, pioneered by researchers at the University of Science and Technology of ...

Humans have a new way of seeing infrared light, without the need for clunky night-vision goggles. Researchers have made the first contact lenses to convey infrared vision — and the devices work ...

Researchers have developed new contact lenses that enable vision in the near-infrared range, and they could restore color perception to people with color blindness. Comments ( 0 ) () ...

NIGHT vision contact lenses are being invented by scientists and could even work with your eyes closed. A study found technology implanted into the eye can successfully pick up infrared light that … ...

Combining regular lens technology with nanoparticles, researchers have created prototypes of contact lenses that allow people to see in the dark — and through their eyelids.

Contact lenses are, clearly, a less invasive option. A researcher helps a study participant put in a contact lens. Yuqian Ma, Yunuo Chen, Hang Zhao. The researchers tested the new lenses on mice, too.

But unlike night vision goggles, the contact lenses do not require a power source. They work by converting the infrared light so that it can be seen by the wearer as either red, green or blue light.

The lenses look like standard soft contact lenses (Image: Yuqian Ma, Yunuo Chen, Hang Zhao) 'Night vision' contact lenses that allow people to see in the dark have been invented by scientists.

Scientists have created infrared contact lenses that can help people see in the dark and with their eyes closed. The study was published in the journal Cell and included researchers from the ...

A project at the University of Science and Technology of China has developed a contact lens allowing wearers to perceive near-IR wavelengths and see better in the dark.Described in Cell, the contact ...

The lenses were tested on both mice and humans, and the results suggest this technology could one day replace bulky night vision gear with something much more discreet.
