The concept of contact lenses dates back to the days of Leonardo Da Vinci, who introduced the general principle. It would take centuries of trial and error before the German physiologist Adolf Eugen Fick constructed the first successful contact lens. Of course, modern contact lenses differ greatly from the first prototypes. Today they are made from hydro gel and silicone, which creates a soft comfortable lens that is worn directly on the eyeball. Both corrective and cosmetic, contact lenses are weightless and invisible ways to alter one's vision or appearance.
