Hexaarylbiimidazole. I guess that's six aarylbiimidazoles.

Will they add this to contact lenses in the future? If so, then I won’t bother with LASIK.

How quickly did she go from dark blue to clear? Quite some time. She had a lot of engrams.

No mention it this material blocks UV light.
If it doesnt it is harmful as a sunglasses material.

No mention it this material blocks UV light. True. It reacts to UV light but no mention of blocking it.

Yes, especially those who are finicky about sunglasses, like myself. I just want a pair that are the same size and shape as my regular glasses, but having a small head makes that a bit difficult.

Whether the material blocks UV doesn’t matter- other UV blockers could be added to lenses that use this.

If you put a UV blocker on it, wouldn’t that stop it from working?
