Iris opens and closes the pupil, regulating the amount of light that enters the eye. Recently, an artificial iris has been created and it looks like a contact lens. Future is here!
There is no limit to my joy; I found eye-related news, and it’s good. They’ve created an artificial iris!
Are you thinking that the exclamation mark is unnecessary? Have you forgotten why you need an iris? It opens and closes the pupil, regulating the amount of light that enters the eye.
The analogous mechanism of the iris in a camera is the diaphragm. Indeed, it’s a natural thing. The Finnish scientists that we recently touched upon, along with some Poles, created an implant. You yawn and say, “So what?” Well, now the iris will cease to be irreplaceable.
Again, so what? This question can squash any argument. Externally, the artificial iris is similar to good, old contact lenses. It’s made of a certain liquid-crystalline elastomer which expands and contracts in response to light. “So what,” you ask again… I’m starting to get a little tired of you.
There’s a chance that it will soon meet necessary specs and the implants will begin.
So what?

A solar eclipse is an eye-catching event, but it can also be a life-changing event if you fail to practice eye safety while enjoying this celestial phenomenon. Wearing sunglasses is not enough to protect your eyes from damage while looking at the sun directly – you need to instead acquire a pair of eclipse glasses from a reputable seller.
Such a rare and "burning" phenomenon is a solar eclipse. To see the light and not go blind you will need special equipment, but a warning – even this doesn't guarantee safety for your eyes. I would prefer to write in big letters "DON'T REPEAT IT AT HOME", but what to do with people who couldn't live without SOLAR ECLIPSE?
