Some months ago we had shared the news with
you about Google
testing prototypes contact lenses which may help
diabetics to successfully monitor their blood glucose level.
Well as per the latest news as reported by Lance Ulanoff on mashable.com, Google’s
Smart Contact Lenses move closer to being a reality,.
Google has secured two patents last week for the cutting edge, biometric
sensor technology.
The “Ophthalmic Electrochemical Sensors” in
these contact lenses are designed to read chemicals in the tear fluid of the
wearer’s eye and alter him/her through a little embedded LED light when their
blood sugar level falls.
Google, which announced the project in
January, still has to get FDA approval before anyone starts wearing these smart
contact lenses.
Till such time that these Google lenses are
available for commercial use, check out the huge collection of eyewear at 20/20 Eyeglass Superstore. They
proudly claim to have a frame for every face and a price for
any budget. With 3 convenient locations in Winter
Park, Melbourne
and Orange
City, each location has its own independent
optometrist and in house lab so that you can be in
and out with your new eyeglasses or contact lenses in as little as one hour.
