TruFocals are quirky
Posted on Aug 11, 09 04:34 PM PDT
Physicist and inventor Stephen Kurtin has finally perfected the art of adjustable focus eyeglasses with the pair of TruFocals. Each "lens" comprises of two lenses, where one if flexible while the other is firm. The flexible lens is located nearer to the eye, where it will come with a transparent distensible membrane connected to a clear rigid surface. The pocket between both lenses will dam up a small quantity of crystal clear fluid, and this will come into effect whenever you move the slider on the bridge to push the fluid while changing the shape of the flexible lens. Needless to say, once the shape has been change, corrections are made to mimic the way lenses in your eyes perform when one was younger. Would be interesting to see TruFocals hit the market in a really big way.
