I am thankful that I don’t have to deal with diabetes, but it must be a pain to monitor your condition, pricking your finger all the time. Now diabetics don't have to worry about all that with the diabetic contact lenses.
These bad boys change color when your blood sugar fluctuates, meaning that you simply need to look in the mirror in order to know what is going on. Although currently still in the research and development phase, I wouldn’t be surprised if the diabetic contact lenses actually made it into production.
