Abstract

The article discusses various methods for maximizing underwater vision and human comfort. Millions of contact lens wearers dive and swim. The refractive index of the cornea is close to the refractive index of water, which makes underwater vision challenging. Underwater vision options include natural ocular accommodation, contact lenses, and diving masks with curved optical surfaces.
