ROCHESTER, N.Y., May 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ – More than one billion people worldwide have a vision condition called presbyopia(1), which is a natural decrease in the ability of the lens in the eye to change its shape to focus on close objects.

Q: I am a contact lens wearer, and I developed keratitis and then a corneal ulcer. Is this common?

A: The cornea is the transparent area in the front of the eye that covers the pupil (the black part that allows light into the eye) and the iris (the colored part), and consists of five layers.

A corneal abrasion is a scrape of the top layer, the epithelium, but does not go through the deeper Bowman’s layer underneath the epithelium. A corneal ulcer is an open sore/erosion (from inflammation or infection) that goes through Bowman’s layer into the deeper layers of the

They help many of us see, but you have to look closely to see them. Millions of Americans wear contact lenses.

Now, a few recent studies show almost all of those people are putting their eyes in danger.

US military developing multi-focus augmented reality contact lenses

Cheap Contact Lenses — Fri, 04 May 2012 18:52:44 +0000

Proving that biological limitations are only a problem for other people, the US Department of Defense and Innovega have begun work on a system, called iOptik, that gives humans the ability to focus on the near foreground and distant background at the same time.

The plan is that soldiers will be able to use these contact lenses to focus on a head-up display (HUD) projected on a pair of spectacles, while retaining wide-angle vision of the background. Current systems require the user to divert all of their
