Video: Adaptive Eyewear - Adjustable Fluid Eyeglasses For Developing Countries
Now this is cool: to solve the problem of getting corrective eyeglasses to those in need in the developing world, the Adaptive Eyewear project has developed a pair of fluid-filled eyeglasses whose prescription can be tailored by the end user!
The same glasses can be distributed to thousands of people, and the end user can adjust the amount of fluid in the glasses until they can see clearly, seal the glasses, and voilà! - instant pair of custom prescription glasses!
Awesome.
