A new “smart” contact lens is in the developing stages in hopes that it will help diabetics be able to monitor glucose levels through the liquid in their eyes. Glucose levels can be monitored with this wireless, remotely operated lens, without diabetics having to constantly think about it throughout the day.

Contacts for Diabetics
Experts claim this will be the first potential use of contacts to monitor diabetes; however, this invention actually comes after Google attempted to release Google Contact Lens in 2018, to no avail. With previous hopes that a contact lens could diagnose diabetes, experts are predicting this new product could replace invasive blood tests for diabetics and also bring about new treatments for various eye diseases.
