  • Neuroscientists explained how they created contact lenses that make the breakthrough possible by converting infrared light to visible light.

Scientists at the University of California San Diego have developed innovative contact lenses that enable wearers to see in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, a range typically invisible to the human eye. These lenses incorporate organic semiconductors and are designed to be safe and comfortable for daily use. The breakthrough could have significant applications in fields such as medicine, where it could enhance the ability to detect and treat diseases, and in security, where it could improve night vision capabilities. The research, published in the journal Advanced Materials, marks a significant step forward in expanding human vision beyond the visible light spectrum.
