Electronic eyeglasses |
Once upon a time, eyeglasses were a simple affair to obtain. You went to an
optometrist, got an exam, thanked the man in the white coat for the prescription, and bought a pair of glasses. You could choose new frames from what was generally a dull collection. Now,
according to a story in the San Jose Mercury News, high-tech glasses are now available, starting around $1,200 or so.
The combination of transparent liquid crystals and traditional lenses makes these forward-looking specs unique (pun intended). A microprocessor that can either be automatically or manually activated also gets in the act. There are many more details that are fun to read, so check the story out and have fun.
