when did the first contact lenses come out
Contact lens In 1888, German ophthalmologist Adolf Gaston Eugen Fick constructed and fitted the first successful contact lens.[11] While working in Zürich, he described fabricating afocal scleral contact shells, which rested on the less sensitive rim of tissue around the cornea, and experimentally fitting them; initially on rabbits, then on himself, and lastly on a small group of volunteers. These lenses were made from heavy blown glass and were 18–21 mm (0.71–0.83 in) in diameter. Fick filled the empty space between cornea and glass with a dextrose solution. He published his work, "Contactbrille", in the journal Archiv für Augenheilkunde in March 1888.
