Contact lens seen on a fingertip
Contact lens. View of a contact lens on a finger- tip prior to being placed on the eye. Contact lenses are worn directly on the eye to correct imperfect vision. They work by replacing the shape of the surface of the cornea (front part of the eye) with their own shape, which is designed to compensate for the focusing defect in the eye. They can either be soft (comfortable, but wear out quickly) or hard (longer lasting, but more uncomfortable). They have to be stored and rinsed in special cleaning solutions to prevent them carrying infections onto the surface of the eye

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the intricate details of a contact lens delicately perched on a fingertip, moments before it is placed onto an awaiting eye. This small but powerful tool serves as a lifeline for those with imperfect vision, offering them the gift of clear sight. Contact lenses work their magic by replacing the natural shape of the cornea, which is responsible for focusing light onto our retinas. Crafted to compensate for any visual defects in our eyes, these lenses come in two variants - soft and hard. The former provides comfort but wears out relatively quickly, while the latter boasts durability at the cost of some discomfort. To ensure optimal hygiene and prevent potential infections from reaching our precious ocular surface, these remarkable devices require special cleaning solutions for storage and rinsing. By diligently following these protocols, wearers can confidently rely on their contact lenses without compromising their eye health. This mesmerizing image not only showcases the marvels of modern science but also reminds us of how something seemingly insignificant can have such a profound impact on one's quality of life. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation in enhancing our visual sense – enabling us to see beyond limitations and embrace clarity with each blink.
