Researchers Say New Contact Lenses Let You See in the Dark
Scientists have created contact lenses that allow people to see in the dark with the help of infrared light. The invention could allow colorblind people to see colors again. The contacts don't require an external power source and wearers can perceive multiple infrared wavelengths even with their eyes closed. They aren't yet able to capture fine details, so the scientists are working on a version with more precise spatial resolution and higher sensitivity.
